Résumé :	The main purpose of this research work is to explore the effectiveness of using educational games as a teaching strategy to improve vocabulary level of second year LMD students of English as a foreign language. This research work also seeks to investigate the effect of using educational games on the learners’ motivation and classroom atmosphere. As a first step, a hypothesis was set as follows: if students learn vocabulary in the writing class through educational games, their level of achievement would improve. We strongly believe that vocabulary is something which can be acquired successfully if it is practiced through educational games which have proven to bring in relaxation and fun for students, thus help them learn and maintain new words easily. In order to prove the hypothesis, three means of research were adopted, first; the teachers’ questionnaire was administered to ten teachers of written expression at the department of foreign languages for the need of gathering detailed information about the strategies they use when teaching unfamiliar words in their lessons and their concern about the affective side of the learner, and whether they use scrambled words game and cross word puzzles as a teaching strategy to teach new vocabulary items in their classes. Second, a test and a questionnaire were given to a sample of twenty second year LMD students of English at the department of foreign languages at Mentouri Constantine University; the principle reason behind using this test is just to compare the results between the two groups; the control (10 students), and the experimental (10 students). The obtained results showed that there was a considerable improvement in comparison with the exercises given to the control group. Furthermore, and during the accomplishment of the test, students have confirmed that scrambled words game and cross word puzzles are wonderful strategies for gaining a large vocabulary store
