Games can motivate students, make repetitive exercises fun, provide instant feedback and let players fail without penalty. Participants experience three game types (team, whole-class, and small-group) that incorporate multi-word phrases and lexico-grammatical patterns, invoke left-brain and right-brain activity, and can be adapted to fit different levels and learning objectives.
