Abstract

Abstract: Learning the English language is essential at all ages but it is beneficial at an early age because children are predisposed to learning. Therefore, the use of gamification is proposed as a methodological strategy to increase the vocabulary of the English language at the preparatory level. Since the use of gamification promotes meaningful learning, autonomy, fun and motivation to the student. In this way, the teacher can use technological tools in the classroom to generate gamified activities that promote new language learning. For purposes of this investigation, we worked with twelve 5-year-olds who attend virtual classes due to the global situation caused by the pandemic. It is necessary to highlight that the teacher proposes gamified activities, creating eight experiences in Kahoot and Nearpod tools.Finally, the results obtained were favorable,demonstrating that the use of gamification allows; increase vocabulary, provide students with a new learning experience, achieve confidence, security and motivate the student to use technological tools.
