101 Language Games for Children Fun and Learning With Words, Stories and Poems

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.Rooyackers, Paul is the author of '101 Language Games for Children Fun and Learning With Words, Stories and Poems', published 2002 under ISBN 9780897933698 and ISBN 0897933699.
