A wonderful teaching tool!

This book is a refreshing way to look at teaching. The creative games that fill the pages bring fun to learning. This book not only gives the reader wonderful games to use with his/her pupils, but step by step instructions on how to make these games effective. The games presented are broad enough to be used in almost any educational setting with any topic the facilitator is presenting. Most of the games are done within cooperative groups or teams, allowing for more group interaction and all around fun. This book is a must have for any teacher, workshop facilitator, or seminar presenter.
