More Innovative Games

In this sequel to Brenda Lichtman's Innovative Games, you'll find 41 new creative games to educate, stimulate, and invigorate middle and high school students. Adaptations for younger or less highly skilled players are provided.

Each game includes a thorough explanation of the activity, including objective, equipment, playing area, participants, game, helpful hints, violations, safety considerations, adaptations for upper elementary grades, and additional rules. Some use standard equipment while others encourage the use of unusual equipment, such as Frisbees, cones, milk jugs, and trash cans.

You'll also learn how to create your own innovative games with a tried and true, step-by-step procedure that involves your students from idea generation through preliminary trials to the final game.
