Language games allow children to stretch their communication abilities,
enhancing vocabulary, conversation, and storytelling skills. A suggested
age range accompanies each game in this book; some games may be adapted
to different age groups. Language games for beginners focus on making
children aware of the ways letters look, the presence of letters in
their surroundings (on signs, for instance), and the different letter
systems in different cultures. More advanced games include creating
poems and haiku, making up stories, and joke-telling. 39 black-and-white
illustrations are included in this wonderful resource for teachers,
therapists, and social workers.
