description | The major aim of this project was to determine to what extent the use of songs and games contributes to teach English to children ranging from eight to ten years old of the fifth level of Basic Education in Jose Rafael Arízaga Elementary School. Moreover, the research was designed to find out whether using songs and games can be an effective way in creating a positive attitude and motivation in language learners. The research was carried out through the use of a survey, an interview, and a class validation. As findings, it has been seen that the use of songs and games not only helps the understanding, but they stimulate and increase the students’ interest to learn, to enjoy and to engage in the learning process. Also, these tools accelerate students’ confidence, learning ability and skills when activities are highly motivating and memorable. Nowadays for all the reasons mentioned above, teachers should use songs and games with children at Elementary Schools. |
