The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of using online electronic games in developing English-speaking skills for 3rd grade pupils from Futures Language School, Nasr City, Cairo Governorate, and will be conducted over 8 weeks (for 31.5 study hours). A quasi-experimental design was employed, with 34 pupils divided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group received instruction using the implemented Study Program that uses online electronic games, while the control group received traditional instruction. A pre-test and post-test were conducted, as well as a feedback questionnaire. Results showed that the experimental group outperformed the control group in English-speaking skills, indicating the potential of online electronic games to enhance language learning outcomes. However, several limitations were recognized, including the study's location in a language school and its focus on a single age group. Based on these findings, recommendations were given for additional study to teachers, curriculum creators, students, and their parents to include online electronic games in language teaching for first-cycle basic education students to develop English speaking skills.
