This study aimed to improve the English speaking skills of 41 primary school students in Thailand through the use of games. The students participated in four English speaking game lesson plans and their speaking skills were evaluated before and after with pre- and post-tests. The results showed that the students' post-test scores were significantly higher than their pre-test scores, demonstrating an improvement in speaking ability. Observation of student behavior also found that students who received rewards for participation were more engaged (74.39%) compared to those who did not receive rewards (23.17%). The study suggests that using games can help motivate students and reduce anxiety to improve English speaking skills.
