Each game indicates the language skill or combination of skills being practiced - listening, speaking, reading and writing - and the optimal group size, from as few as 10 students to classes of unlimited size. The game's instructional aim - for example, vocabulary expansion - the materials needed to play, a full description of the game itself, additional suggestions, scoring guides and extra handouts are all provided. You and your class need only relax and enjoy the wonderfully creative ideas that Jerry has assembled for you.

<p>Reflections from a rabbi who has explored other faiths and spiritual paths Jerry Steinberg’s spiritual quest started at a young age. Explorations of Christian and Hindu faiths led Steinberg to a specialization in psychotherapy (past-life regression, dreams, and psychogenic illness). He became a rabbi, while continuing to explore all aspects of faith with an emphasis on Kabbalah. In this memoir, Steinberg’s life journey helps readers explore an understanding of God that goes beyond the conventional, and contributes to a different perception of the world and the universe in which we live.</p>
