Description
Summary:This action research project presents a pedagogical proposal aims at revealing the impact of using a series of activities based on situated vocabulary board games for vocabulary learning in English as a foreign language classroom in Bogotá, Colombia. The participants in this study were third-grade students aged between seven and nine years from the public school Liceo Femenino de Cundinamarca Mercedes Nariño. To this end, throughout three intervention cycles, the students used five board games along with their corresponding pre- and post-activities to learn vocabulary and develop social skills. As a matter of conclusion, this document presents the implications, limitations, and considerations for future research.
