The book provides a useful and resourceful collection of instructional activities for Chinese language teachers in secondary and post-secondary settings. You can simply take and use whatever suitable for your students at different proficiency levels to improve pronunciation, strengthen character and vocabulary learning, and integrate grammar usage. A valuable activity book after "Let's Play Games in Chinese" by Ted Yao & Scott McGinnis originally published in 1989.

This book provides lots of good ideas and hands-on activities that teachers may easily adopt and work with their students. Activities such as tone practices, group recitation, parallel proverbs, and usage of grammar points are engaging, flexible, relevant, and most importantly, fun! The authors cleverly integrate the 5C's into these innovative activities, while students are able to enhance their language skills through practices. Group projects by using social media technology are also introduced. Topics that are connected to student’s life experience are suggested for phone chatting and interactive interviews. Meaningful play is the goal! Throughout the book, students will engage in these fun-filled activities.
