Abstract

The complex problems faced by street children make it difficult for them to access education, especially English language learning. Therefore, this research examines how the use of games can help improve the English vocabulary skills of street children in Parepare City, South Sulawesi Province. Researcher used quantitative methods, measuring vocabulary skills through pre-test scores and post-test results to analyze the improvement in their English skills. The study followed a three-step process: a pre-test to assess the children's prior knowledge, playing educational games, and a post-test to evaluate what they learned. Researchers worked with 15 street children and used four types of games: matching games, guessing games, fill-in-the-blank games, and word scramble games. The results showed that 80 percent of the children achieved an very good level of vocabulary knowledge, while 20 percent achieved a good level. The children responded enthusiastically to the game-based learning activities, making the learning process both engaging and effective. Their active participation and positive feedback highlight the potential of using games as a teaching tool
