Conclusion
In non-English environments generally want to learn as they enjoy the 
process of learning English for its own sake. Hence we can say that motivation 
plays a crucial role in foreign language learning. Teachers of EFL should create 
motivating conditions for learning. They need to maintain their learners motivation 
by offering stimulating activities and fostering self-esteem, self-confidence, and 
co-operation among learners. Finally, motivating teachers take care to turn 
evaluation and feedback into positive experiences. Only due to good motivation is 
it possible to realize the main aim of foreign language teaching: developing 
childrens basic communication abilities in English.pick up new words at an 
amazing pace in both their first and second language. Vocabulary learning around 
a topic can begin from the learners rather than from the book, by asking them 
directly what words they already know and what words they would like to learn 
about the topic. The presentation of the vocabulary should be as varied as possible 
because children are interested in the meaning and function of the new language 
more holistically, in order to play a game, sing a song, or act out a story. Teachers 
can use an object, cut-out figures, photographs, pictures from books. The meaning 
of new words can be explained by performing an action, drawing diagrams on the 
board, giving the analytical definition, or by verbal explanation: putting the new 
word in a defining context (e.g. we use a pen to write), translating into another 
language. Recycling vocabulary with board or card games, class surveys, and 
project work can give children the chance to use the new vocabulary in situations 
where they have control over the choice of language. This kind of dynamic view 
makes vocabulary come alive and paves the path to explicit grammar 
learning.games children can learn English unconsciously like they learn their 
mother tongue. There are many kinds of games and activities which can be used in 
teaching English: riddles, puzzles, crosswords, puns, songs. Riddles encourage 
critical thinking skills. By listening to English songs, children can hear the native 
pronunciation of words. Music can also help shy children to express themselves.
