In recent years, many language teaching staffs at home and abroad devote to the research work of “how to apply games to pupils in English learning”. As Cosby Rogers and Janet Sawyer concludes, “Game is the essence of life.” Importantly, Lawrence claim that games are a kind of ability. If you want to establish an intimate connection with your children, you need to understand them and inspire their ability to play in nature. Simply speaking, having a spirit of entertainment for life. It is important to use games to inspire children's nature for every educator.

Helena pointed out that games and similar games are one of the most natural ways for children learners to establish a communication context.  Games are a powerful tool for learning languages. Ludewig also believes that in learning and games, children will definitely choose to be a game! If the school combines happy games with cramming, it can make the teacher easier, let the students turn their curiosity and honor as the driving force, and more importantly, when playing games, the children will take the initiative to make learning more valuable.

Although teachers have tried every means to introduce games into the classroom, they want to combine teaching and games. However, not all games can be used in the classroom. As Cheng Cuijun discovered that some teachers use the content and teaching content of the game seriously and seriously out of practice, and the teaching game becomes a general entertainment game, completely losing its value. Xiao Xinjie also agrees with this statement. In order to make the game activities better assist the teaching content, it is necessary to pay attention to the choice of the game.

Under the background of the new curriculum reform, the role of modern teachers has changed from being the imparter of knowledge to the leader of student learning and the promoter of student development. Educational work is no longer simply to impart textbook knowledge, but to design and create a pleasant course process has become the goal of every educator. How to build it? American psychologist Bruner believes that the essence of learning is to actively form a cognitive structure. That is, the best motivation for learning is that students have an intrinsic interest in the knowledge they have learned, and the most inspiring such intrinsic interest is the game. Confucius, an ancient Chinese educator, once said: the one who knows is not as good as the one who is good, and the one who is good is not as good as the one who is happy. Visibly, interest is the best motivation for learning.  

The author discovered a phenomenon: in an elementary school class, the overall English performance of boys will large behind that of girls’. Why did this difference occur? The author believes that it is due to interest. In the process of elementary English learning, the content of recitation and expression is relatively large, and boys are obviously slightly inadequate in this respect. Under this defect, students lose more interest in English learning. Therefore, the author believes that educators should establish the concept of happy learning for students, and create an interesting and happy learning atmosphere for students, which can improve students' interest and initiative in learning.

Having set the background, I will focus on how to cite game-teaching strategies in English classes. According to the above-mentioned researcher claimed that it is necessary to fully consider the characteristics of children at different stages of growth and the laws of their development, which will help teachers to develop reasonable curriculum plans and design interesting classroom activities to make the language more effectively. 

In sum, all the above studies have put forward valuable ideas about how importance for pupils in language learning. This article will take primary school English teaching as an example. Based on the overview of the game teaching method, this paper analyzes how primary school students use the game teaching method to enhance students' interest in English courses and explores the strategy of game teaching.
