Games for learning English - Classification of games

Game ... From the first days it is an integral part of a child's life. Childhood is unthinkable without her. Playing with a child, you can not only teach him to read, write and count, but develop creative abilities, temper physically and morally. After all, for a child, play is not entertainment, but life itself.

Thanks to the use of various games in foreign language lessons , the child learns a foreign language in a fun and entertaining way, develops memory, attention, intelligence, team spirit, supports interest in a foreign language .

Using games in English lessons helps relieve fatigue and stress, create a friendly atmosphere in the classroom, remove the psychological barrier, and increase motivation to learn the language. In the game, the abilities of the child, his character are most fully manifested. Of course, it is worth remembering that each age period is characterized by its own type of leading activity.

The methodological typology of games for learning English is as diverse as their purpose. In this article, I would like to talk about the most popular types of games. First of all, it should be noted that at present there is not a single unambiguous classification, and all existing ones are very conditional.

In the book " Educational games in English lessons " M. F. Stronin distinguishes two categories of such games:
• Grammar, lexical, phonetic and spelling games that contribute to the formation of language skills.
• Creative games that contribute to the further development of speech skills and abilities, allow you to show independence

Leaning towards the classification of M.F. Stronina, I would like to consider the following types of games in more detail:

1. Grammar games for learning English.

The main goals of grammar games: to teach children the use of speech patterns containing certain grammatical difficulties; practically apply knowledge of grammar, create a natural situation for the use of grammatical structures in natural situations of communication

• Act as you say .
Purpose: training in the use of Present Continuous .
Game progress: The task is to execute commands with comments. 3 students play: 1 - gives a command, 2 - performs and says what he is doing, 3 - describes the actions of the second.
1 - Play volleyball. 2 - I am playing volleyball. 3 - He/ She is playing volleyball.

1 - Wash your face. 2 - I am washing my face. 3 - He/ She is washing his/ her face.

1- Do exercises. 2 – I am doing exercises. 3 – He/ She is doing exercises.

• Hide-and-Seek in the Picture.
Purpose: to practice the use of prepositions of place.
Game progress: Large room picture required. The driver (one of the students) "hides" somewhere in the picture, writes on paper where he hid and gives it to the teacher. Children, asking the driver general questions, “look for” him in the picture.
- Are you under the bed?
- Are you behind the door?
- Are you on the chair?
- Are you in the box?

2. Lexical games.

Lexical games are focused on helping children master lexical material. The purpose of these games is: to help in the acquisition and expansion of vocabulary, the use of vocabulary in situations close to the natural environment; acquaintance of the child with the compatibility of words, the development of the speech activity of the child.

• Memory game
Purpose: memorization of thematic vocabulary (animals, fruits, vegetables, food, clothes, professions, home, family, sports, etc.)
Game progress: The teacher lays out 10 cards with pictures in front of the students, everyone calls the words in unison. The teacher asks to turn away or close your eyes and takes one card. Students must guess which card is missing by calling all 10 words in order. There are no cards left at the end, but the children call all the words in the correct order.

• Champion Game.
Purpose: to consolidate vocabulary on the topic of the lesson (animals, fruits, vegetables, food, clothes, professions, home, family, sports, etc. ), memory training.
Game progress: starting the game, the teacher says the first word. Each subsequent student must name all the previous words in the order in which they were included in the game, and say a new word. If someone forgot a word or mixed up the order, he is out of the game.

3. Phonetic games for learning English. .

At the initial stage of teaching a foreign language, a lot of attention is paid to the correct pronunciation of sounds. The educational goal of phonetic games is for children to correctly pronounce and recognize the required sounds in words, working out intonation. At the initial stage of learning a foreign language, phonetic games are used regularly. In the future, phonetic games are held at the level of words, sentences, rhymes, tongue twisters, poems, songs.

• Search for sounds
Purpose: the formation of phonemic hearing skills.
Game progress: The teacher shows the children pictures and clearly pronounces the names of the objects depicted on them. The children must show the picture in which the given sound is hidden. (Or clap your hands. The sounds are practiced with the children before the game starts).

• Who is faster?
Purpose: formation and improvement of the skills of establishing sound-letter correspondences and the meanings of words by ear
Game progress: students are given cards on which the words in a foreign language are given in the first column, their transcription in the second, and the translation of words into Russian in the third. Words in a foreign language are numbered in order. As soon as the teacher pronounces a particular word, each student must put its number next to the corresponding transcription and translation into Russian (or connect all three correspondences with a continuous line). The winner is the one who quickly and better establishes the correspondence between the foreign word, transcription and translation.

Monkey Talk. Sound [ð]
Purpose: setting the correct articulation of the speech organs of students when pronouncing individual English sounds .
Game progress: “It seems to me that you can all portray little monkeys very well - how they make faces, how they chat. Monkeys in an English zoo speak English. And when they pronounce the sound [ð], they try very hard - they try so hard that they show their tongues to visitors. An angry monkey shouts at everyone: “They, they, they”, and a learned monkey speaks like a poet: “Thee, Thee, Thee”:

Little monkey in the tree
This is what he says to me,
“They, they, they
Thee, thee, thee”.
Monkey jumps from limb to limb
While I chatter back to him:
“Thee, thee, thee
They, they, they.”

Only the teacher can say the verse, and the students can say the words “Thee, thee, thee, They, they, they”, but in more prepared groups, all students can learn the verse.

4. Spelling games.

Spelling games contribute to the formation and development of speech skills. The main goal of these games is to master the spelling of foreign words. Some of the games are designed to develop the memory of children, others - to reproduce the spelling image of the word.

• Word composers
Goal: developing spelling skills
Game progress: the teacher writes a long word on the board, eg representanive. From the letters of this word, children must make new words and write them down. For example: present, tea, test, nest, part, art. The one with the last word wins.

• The Comb.
Purpose: consolidation of the studied vocabulary, development of spelling skills.
Game progress: the class is divided into 2 - 3 teams. Write a long word for each team on the board. Representatives of the teams take turns running up to the board and writing words that begin with the letters that make up the original word, vertically. Words of one command should not be repeated. The first team to spell the words correctly wins. Words can be of different parts of speech, as long as they are longer than the words of rivals.

5. Creative games for learning English.

Contribute to the further development of speech skills and abilities. Bright, colorful materials that arouse interest in a child are of no small importance when learning a foreign language. In these games, the imagination is trained, the child learns to see the unusual in the most ordinary things. This is creativity, and thanks to it, free speech.

Use games in teaching a foreign language, because this is not just an entertaining technique or a way of organizing cognitive material, but also the comprehensive development of the child, helping to form his character.
