Book is geared towards British pronunciation, not American English,
By Virginiareader (VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pronunciation Games (Cambridge Copy Collection) (Spiral-bound)
I was surprised when I received this book to find that the pronunciation taught by these games is RP (Received Pronunciation) or British English. Though some of the games deal with intonation, word stress, etc., and can be used for teaching American English, be aware that many of these games will not be useful for teaching American English pronunciation.
However, if you are teaching British English pronunciation, this book could be a nice resource.

A Decent Resource,
By Bu-Chan (Aotearoa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pronunciation Games (Cambridge Copy Collection) (Spiral-bound)
"Pronunication Games" is a book designed for Elementary to Intermediate students, and presents a number of activities targetting various facets of phonology. These include stress, intonation, connected speech and the like.
The games range from the bog-simple to quite complex affairs. I have found students quite enjoy them and they offer a good range of activity types. While I would not rely entirely on this book, it does provide a good variety of games that students will mostly enjoy and have fun with.

This review is from: Pronunciation Games (Cambridge Copy Collection) (Spiral-bound)
Pronunciation Games displays the typical British sense of humor in "Sound Pictures" when it uses a picture of a vulture in a cage above the refrigerator. In some of the word games and mazes, the British RP dialect sans final /r/ is seen in words such as 'car,' 'bear,' and 'dear.' There are various games to play from beginning levels to the more advanced. In addition, this book is reproducible. If you want to teach RP or pick up a British accent while having some fun, this is the book for you. However, a few of the games and word pictures can be used for teaching GA or American English.
