Abstract：As the importance of primary English teaching is greatly highlighted by the whole society in recent years, primary school English, as a compulsory course, is making itself into primary schools. However, many problems with primary school English teaching remain to be carefully studied and properly solved. A common phenomenon is that pupils' interest in English is decreasing as time moves on and as a result, they become more and more passive in English class. Based on the findings of many studies, the present paper tries to prove that playing games in English teaching, as one of the effective ways, is particularly suitable for children's physiological and psychological development and can foster their interest and generate their thirst for knowledge. With games involved in the learning process, pupils are encouraged to do many things with fun in the target language and in this way, while enjoying the pleasure and happiness of playing games, they can always learn something about the target language and have a sense of achievement.
