Abstract EN
The current study aimed to trace the most critical periods that led to the origination of using play-based learning as language instruction tool in the modern era.
In addition, it aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using such method in English language instruction.
Both the chronological and thematic presentation were utilized to present the data.
The results of the study showed that using games to enhance language learning was known in ancient societies (such as Greek and Rome), however, a set of pioneers contribute in this field such as John lock, Maria Montessori, Vygotsky, and Piaget.
The study also found that utilizing play-based activities to enhance language learning is beneficial if the educational games are prepared conventionally (if they are purposeful, well planned, and entertaining).
