This study aims to examine teachers' strategies in teaching English vocabulary through games in elementary schools. Vocabulary is an important foundation in language learning, and the use of games is considered capable of making the learning process more interesting and meaningful for students. This study employs a literature review method to analyze various findings related to the application of games in vocabulary learning. The results of the study show that teachers use various games such as flashcards, word-matching games, bingo, guessing games, and role play, which are systematically integrated into the learning process. The use of games helps students understand the meaning of words, improve memory, and use vocabulary in simple communication. In addition, games also increase students' motivation, participation, and confidence. Overall, game-based vocabulary learning is effective in elementary schools if it is well designed and properly managed by teachers.
