Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The abstract addresses the relevant issue of using group games as an effective tool for developing English grammar competence in primary school pupils. It analyses the psychological and pedagogical characteristics of young learners that justify the use of game-based learning methods and substantiates the role of collaborative interaction in acquiring grammatical structures. The stages of grammar competence formation and the criteria for selecting appropriate group grammar games are outlined. Examples of group games suitable for English lessons in primary school are provided. The results of pedagogical observation and trial teaching during teaching practice confirm the effectiveness of grammar games in enhancing pupils’ communicative skills. These findings support the conclusion that the systematic integration of group games into grammar instruction in English lessons at the primary school level is both advisable and beneficial.
