Ford Tempo Clutch Problem

I have a 1988 Ford Tempo with a 4 cylinder engine in it and i push in the clutch to start it and then i go to put it in gear to get it going and it acts like its in neutral and the engine just revs. then with the engine still running i can shift through the gears with it still acting like its in neutral without pushing in the clutch. whats wrong with the car?
