Primary Games: Experiential Learning Activities 
for Teaching Children K-8

(Jossey-Bass, 2002)

The book has special features to help you have a successful classroom game experience:

  • A lengthy discussion on how to select, modify, prepare, set-up, run and debrief your learning game.
  • A game-by-game summary that introduces you to the features and "personality" of  each game.
  • Sample plans to demonstrate how to prepare a game to meet a specific classroom challenge.
  • Five specific classroom challenges with a list of suggested games that can be used 
    to meet each challenge.
  • A quick-view matrix that matches each game against seven educational goals and/or 
    group dynamics.

Each game includes pages of tips — including a complete set of Teacher Notes — on how to
