Based on the professional experience of the researcher, it was found that learners encountered difficulties in memorizing Chinese vocabulary. This issue may contribute to a decline in their overall academic achievement. This research has the following objectives: 1) To compare the ability for memorization and the ability to distinguish Chinese vocabulary before and after providing instruction using the bingo game as teaching material. 2) To create teaching material that helps to solve both the memorization issue and the ability to distinguish Chinese vocabulary. The research sample were 50 primary school level students from class 2/6 from Chongfah Sinseung Wanich Bamrung School. The research instruments consist of 1) A bingo game. 2) Four Lesson Plans Based on the Dual-Process Theory of Memory. 3) Pre- and Post-Instruction achievement assessment, and analysis of data using descriptive statistics which consist of standard deviation and percentages. Research results reveal that tests after instruction were better than the tests before the instruction and were statistically significant at 0.01. Analysis of the effectiveness index of the applied innovation was 0.0542 or in other words the effectiveness was 5.42%. The following research can be utilized as preliminary data for further studies which contain a participatory learning component and can also serve as guidelines for students and primary education.
