Abstract

The objectives of this research were to 1) create and evaluate the validity of the game-based learning management plan for the development of Thai spelling reading and spelling in the Thai language learning content group, and 2) compare the reading achievement in the Thai language learning content group using games during before and after school for Grade 1 students of Ban Rin Luang School. The sample consisted of 20 students in Grade 1 in the 1st semester of the 2022 academic year, and the tools used in the study included 5 game-based learning management plans for Grade 1 students of 3 hours each, 17 hours each before and after the exam for a total of 5 weeks.
