Activities, Games, and Assessment Strategies for the Foreign Language Classroom ReviewThis is a great resource for foreign language teachers. I have it with me whenever I am planning lessons. The beginning of the book has a section on classroom organization which has some great tips for student and teacher organization. I've used the packet and binder ideas. I also like all the ideas for how to use flashcards and mini-whiteboards.

The next section of the book has ideas to promote and assess oral proficiency. I really like the idea of essential questions for each unit and making role-play cards for the students.
The rest of the book is divided into warm-ups, individual practice activities, pair activites, group activities, games, and some five-minute activities. I use these sections a lot when I am planning my lessons to ensure that I am not doing the same activities all of the time. It is easy to get stuck in a "game" rut where you play the same game over and over. With all of the ideas in this book, I can always be using different games and group/pair activities. My students enjoy doing the different activities and are not bored because I change what I am doing frequently.
I highly recommend this book to all foreign language teachers. Finally, all of those great ideas you get at conferences are all in one book.
