This guide contains the preparation instructions and rules for 18 games designed to teach new skills, add variety, create enthusiasm, and reinforce already-learned skills for first- and second-semester Forkner shorthand students. Divided into three sections, this booklet includes: (1) the instructions, rules, and word lists for 10 games that can be used during the first semester after teaching lessons from the Forkner Shorthand Text; (2) the instructions, rules, and word lists used in the eight games designed for use during the second semester, some of which correspond to certain lessons in the Forkner Correlated Diction and Transcription Text; and (3) a brief description of 11 additional ideas and games which can be incorporated in the shorthand curriculum. All games in this booklet can be adapted to any shorthand system and used in shorthand, secretarial, and notetaking classes. This document is part of a collection of materials from the Iowa Area Education Agency 7 Teacher Center project. (JW)
