Four eighth junior high school students participated in this study. During ten weeks of card games instruction, students were taught how to use vocabulary they had learned to construct sentences. Before the instruction started, students were given a pre-questionnaire and a brief English interview to target students, who liked card games, teamwork, and happy learning environment. The four target students played four instructional card games from easy to difficult to improve their grammar over ten weeks. The teacher used a checklist with scoring formulas as the worksheet to record students progress while students played and marked students weak points. The final class ended with a group interview to understand what effect the games had on students and to what degree the students liked these games. The data was analyzed according to radar chart, coding, categorization, description, and interpretation scheme. The findings of this current study are that the instructional card games improved the students' paying attention in class, speaking ability, grammar conception, and increased their interest, and achievement especially the students with lower English proficiency. Moreover, after ten weeks instruction, students significantly improved grammar internalization and oral expression. In conclusion, the series of instructional card games is helpful to students' paying attention in class, speaking ability, grammar conception, and increases students' interest, and achievement.
