Abstract
This project consists of games and activities based on grammatical areas which are problems for the intermediate-level ESL student
After polling ESL teachers, we selected three specific problem areas:
(1) irregular past tense verbs (2) modal auxiliaries (3) verbs in the perfective
For each grammatical area we have created a minimum of six games/activities, including at least one card game, one board game, one individualized activity, and one jazz chant.
Every game and activity has been tested through actual use in at least one ESL classroom. Revisions have been made based on the results of this testing.
