This paper investigates the informal environment that pupils ages 3-12 are a part of while they are not in school and how extramural tools aid their vocabulary learning. According to Sundqvist and Wikström (2016) children today are growing up in a world of digital development and advancement and at the same time being a part of it. This study will discuss if pupils are in the mindset of learning when using digital tools within an informal environment or not. Previous research within this field provide key information regarding pupils who were gaming in their free time using the English language daily playing games, interacting and producing the language was key for vocabulary development (Russell, 2016). This paper will investigate different aspects that may have an effect on the students’ vocabulary learning within the classroom. Furthermore, this paper will review and discuss how this way of learning may be transmitted over to the formal environment in the classroom.
