'The activities can be used at any level and adapted to any teaching situation. I would therefore definitely recommend this book to EVERYONE.' Standpoints

This book contains over 130 short activities for the language classroom: some are well-tried favourites clearly restated; others are new ideas or variations. The activities can be used to support learners with particular aspects of language, help students and teacher to get to know each other, provide a smooth transition between two major parts of a lesson, supplement a coursebook, and introduce or round off lessons. The activities are laid out simply in alphabetical order, with sections providing guidance on aims, preparation (if any), and procedure.
