Designed for learners of English as a second language, but applicable to all language learners, the exercises in this text aim to promote comfort in speaking and development of vocabulary through active, informal, creative methods removed from the formality of the classroom.  They are improvisational, challenging, competitive and fun.  They are performed in a fluid state where problem solving and intuitive thought, combined with the support of fellow students, put learners of any age at ease during the process of extending the reach of their language ability.  For the teacher, it provides a more “real world” view of student ability and progress that is not captured in standard testing.
