The role of games in the teaching of foreign languages

THE ROLE OF GAMES IN THE TEACHING OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES
The game is an active way to reach many educational purposes, and is of important pedagogical value. The value of the game is that the process of mastering of the material is easier and faster because it is pleasant to do it in such a way and therefore the information is usually remembered for a long time. According to D.B. Elkonin (D.B. Elkonin Psychology of a Game (Psikhologiya igry) - M., 1978.),The game has four essential functions for humans: means of need-motivational sphere, means of knowledge, means of development of mental actions and means of arbitrary behavior.
In this work I'm going to give information about the features of the game in classroom , its purpose and specificity and also about the organization of the games.

We all know that pupils are familiar with the games more than learning something from their early years so education through games is the best option for everyone. If during the classes teacher uses games or something entertaining recieving the data becomes easier to students as entering to the atmosphere using games can attract their attention more than the formal methods of teaching languages.

In Uzbekistan most teachers use grammar translation method as a result students become indifferent to the subject and they don't want to study because this type of methodology is teacher centered and sometimes puts pressure on students. Most students even don't understand what they are going to learn as teachers use only English and asks follow the rules strictly without using any interesting ways of teaching. As a result students become bored and loose their attention.
However, games can provide the class with the enjoyable and friendly atmosphere.
We should also realize that today's children and teenagers have the whole world on their hands because they all have their own electronic devices like smartphones or computers .
