"This book is the starting point for what could be an extensive collection of Index Card Games for you or your department. We have provided simple directions for six kinds of games and a number of suggestions for specific games of each type. As a starting point, try some of the specific games we have suggested and then once you get the hand of it, you will undoubtedly want to add games of your own to your collection. [...] The games can be one of the most enjoyable supplementary activities you can do with your class whether you use them once a week or once a day. In an intensive language program you can easily use one a day and the students will not tire of them because they provide a pleasant and relaxing break from the hard work of battling with a stubborn language. Because the games are by nature a supplementary activity and a time-out from the rigors of formal teaching and learning, they are best used to review or practice words and sentences that have already been introduced. In a limited way however, the games can be used to introduce new bits and pieces of language - especially vocabulary items and idioms."
