5 There are some suggestions stated by the researcher in order to develop and increase student s vocabulary. For the student s should be creative and they should participate in every activity that is done by the teacher in the class, because studying English using game will make them interested in class and they will like English as well as their mother tongue. The teacher should provide interesting activities and material in order to prevent the students from being bored and encourage the students interest. The suggestion for other researchers is to carry out studies related to English teaching particularly in elementary schools so that the teaching-learning process will be more successful, or at least the result and management of English teaching elementary school are better that it was.
