by the teacher and games are one of the best ways to achieve this. However, for a game to achieve its
purpose, it is necessary that teachers should consider some factors such as deciding on which game to
use and the time to use the game in their classrooms. Besides, teachers have some other important
roles such as making the necessary preparations about the game, organizing the class, and running the
activity as smoothly as possible. Hence, for a game to become pedagogically successful, it is important
that teachers should be aware of their roles and all the other factors affecting the success of a game. As
such, Celce-Murcia (1979, p.54) asserts that games should not only be used to prevent class from
being monotonous or to attract students’ attention or to fill the time at the end of the class.
