THE IMPORTANCE OF DIDACTIC GAMES IN TEACHING ENGLISH TO YOUNG LEARNERS

Summary/Abstract: The process of teaching-learning-assessing has always been in the centre of methodologists` research. They have tried to improve the methods and techniques used for teaching foreign languages and to make the didactic process challenging and attractive. In the past few years, they have discovered that using interactive techniques, songs, games and other communication-based activities increases the chances of acquiring communicative competence in a foreign language. Didactic games are one of the most attractive techniques that teachers of English use with young learners, and not only, in the didactic process. They are interactive, communication based, challenging and most of all fun.
