The Playful Classroom: Why games are a power tool for vocabulary building
Ready to transform vocabulary lessons from tedious memorization to joyful, effective learning experiences? In this energizing episode of Teaching English to Kids: A Journey of Fun Learning, we dive deep into the powerful role of games in language acquisition.
Building on our previous discussions about storytelling, music, and inductive learning, we explore how games naturally combine all these elements to create the perfect environment for vocabulary retention. Drawing from recent academic research, we break down the neuroscience behind why games are so effective—from lowering the "affective filter" to creating emotional connections that cement long-term memory.
Whether you're looking to refresh your teaching toolkit or seeking validation for the playful approaches you already use, this episode provides both the theoretical foundation and practical strategies you need. Learn how to create a classroom where vocabulary isn't just learned—it's experienced, enjoyed, and remembered.
