We will say that this is only partly true. What should not be neglected at the same time is childrens motivation and interests in learning. By offering a foreign language at school, we are aiming to educate “the whole child” rather than only teach them the language. Therefore, the first priority to teaching English at the primary school is to cultivate their interest in learning, motivate them to work hard, help them establish good learning habits and develop useful learning strategies so that they are ready to continue their learning when they move into secondary schools. Introducing a foreign language to children is like opening up another window for them to see the other side of the world. This will arouse their interest and curiosity in different cultures and different ways of communication. It is hard to imagine that a child who gets tired of the subject will work hard and make efforts in learning it. In other words, if a child, after learning English at the primary school, hate s it, you would not expect him/her to work hard on it and he/she would have any interest and motivation in learning it when he/she moves to the secondary school. Therefore, motivation and interest in learning ate fundamental to ensure success in learning a foreign language got child.How to make English lesson vivid and how to attract pupils interest in it? Playing games in English teaching is one of the effective ways to motivate children to work hard and cultivate their interests in learning English.

And more and mote teachers use songs in their teaching as they come to realize that playing games in English teaching is very important. The paper aims
