The article examines the possibilities of the use of modern computer technologies in the lexical skills formation of English ofprimary school pupils. The work describes the author's methodology, which includes a developed website with a various list of exercises and tasks at the stage of using vocabulary (vari-situational stage): exercises for controlling ofvocabulary (correlate words with translation, connect pairs of synonyms or antonyms, andfind a definition of a foreign word), thematic crosswords and interactive testing. Also within the framework of the website we developed a descriptive electronic dictionary with hyperlinks to the context. Various children's fairy tales were offered as contexts in English. In order to confirm the research hypothesis experiment was conducted. The results of the experiment allowed the authors to justify the use of modern ICT in foreign language lessons in order to increase the level of formation of lexical skills of primary school pupils.
