50 QUICK-PLAY GRAMMAR GAMES

Educational board games are often expensive and sometimes limited in scope.

School materials budgets aren’t getting any more generous and value is an important consideration when making a purchase for the classroom or therapy setting. My goal in writing this book is to provide educators with a wide variety of game types in many different skill areas for a reasonable price. 

These games can be used exactly as they are printed (some photocopying may be required), or you can photocopy the boards, color them, laminate them, and store them in file folders for repeated use. These games make great additions to learning centers or as take-home activities. As with any tool, every professional who picks up this book will use it differently.


50 Quick-Play Grammar Games is designed to reinforce a variety of basic grammar skills. At least two games are included for each skill in the book, and two different skill levels are addressed within each skill area. 








BRAIN-FRIENDLY STRATEGIES FOR THE INCLUSION CLASSROOM


Insights from a neurologist and classroom teacher.

Historically, teachers in regular classrooms have not felt prepared to teach exceptional students, preferring to leave the job to trained specialists.

But times and laws have changed, and most classrooms today have at least some inclusive aspects to them. Brain research has provided educators with a better understanding of instructional practices that not only are essential for students with special needs, but also benefit their peers. These new tools will both help teachers face the challenges of teaching an inclusion class and make teaching more fruitful and rewarding.

The learning brain, it is only relatively recently that cognitive neuroscientists have begun to study how our brain structures support mental functions.









BOREDOM IN THE CLASSROOM ADDRESSING STUDENT MOTIVATION, SELF-REGULATION, AND ENGAGEMENT IN LEARNING.



Boredom in the Classroom is an essential resource for researchers, scientist-practitioners, clinicians, and graduate students in the fields of child and school psychology, educational psychology, social work, and related disciplines.

This brief synthesizes current findings on the many aspects of chronic student boredom, its relationship with negative academic, emotional, and health outcomes, and what professionals can do to best address it. Citing the complexity of this common student emotion, the author spotlights boredom susceptibility during the critical K-12 years. 

The brief analyzes cognitive and emotional attributes of boredom and identifies emotional skills that can be strengthened to counteract it. In addition, the volume features strategies for educators and school counselors to reduce boredom, both internally and in class.

The academic emotion of boredom, interestingly, is one of the most commonly experienced emotions of students in schools (Pekrun, Goetz, Daniels, Stupnisky, & Perry, 2010). It is not an emotion to which teachers have paid much attention. Certainly teachers have had students tell them that they are bored in class but teachers may attribute this emotion to laziness, student anxiety or depression, or to personality variables. School psychologists and other mental health personnel in schools do not have a history of either assessing or providing interventions for boredom in schools.

Each game is written within a specific functional area and limited to one or two structures and a clearly defined lexical field. They can be used with beginner’s right from the very first lesson.

BEGINNER’S COMMUNICATION GAMES


About games.

A game is an activity with rules, a goal and an element of fun.

There are two kinds of games: competitive games, in which players or teams race to be the first to reach the goal, and cooperative games, in which players or teams work together towards a common goal. Both kinds are featured in this book.

The activities in this book fall into two types: linguistic games and communicative games. In linguistic games, the goal of the games is linguistic accuracy, i.e. producing a correct structure.

Communicative games, however, are activities with goal or aim that is not linguistic. Successful completion of the game will involve the carrying out of a task such as drawing in a route on a map, filling in a chart, or finding two matching pictures, rather than the correct production of a structure.

However, in order to carry out this task it will be necessary to use language, and by careful construction of the task it will be possible to specify in advance what language will be required.

CREATIVITY IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE CLASSROOM

Developing creativity is not an easy option and poses future challenges.

It has been compared to a muscle that needs the constant constraining discipline of exercise to strengthen individuals’ innovative thinking and problem-solving.

There is a tendency to devote time to its development with children and young learners, when it is as important to extend its use to give positive satisfaction to all ages.

This volume mixes contributions from a wide range of authors, from those with many years’ experience and previous publications to those who have just started their journey.

It demonstrates that creativity in the language classroom isn’t limited to the ‘gifted’ and ‘talented’ but is something that any teacher can try to apply.

Creativity is an endangered species in the current model of education, which is increasingly subject to institutional, curricular and assessment constraints.


This collection will serve to encourage and inspire teachers to allow their creativity to flourish, and to foster it in others.
