Nevertheless, in the process of practical operation needs to choose the appropriate teaching implementation plan and adjusts the games degree of difficulty. Otherwise, learners will focus on the fun factor and ignore the learning of core content.

Through the study of this period, the author deeply feels the powerful charm of educational game software in the primary school English teaching. However, it will make great efforts to popularize the educational game software into English vocabulary teaching in primary school. Exam-oriented educational system of the traditional concept of education and the shortage of the existing educational game software limit the educational game softwares application in the primary school English teaching, so that it cannot realize the combination of educational game software with English teaching perfectly at the present stage.

We expect people with lofty ideals from all sectors of society can join this study, and make unremitting efforts for the students to study happily and promote their physical and moral health.
