Description

Vocabulary is considered as an essential part in the learning process of any language, and the English language is not the exception. Words are the basis for the production of the language; people need words to speak and write and they also require knowing vocabulary in order to understand what they read or listen. The basis of this investigation is to demonstrate that vocabulary teaching needs to be a dynamic and encouraging process for students. Teachers have to promote the motivation in students for learning vocabulary because it will be used in the activities for practicing and improving the English language learning. Therefore, the application of didactic resources is necessary to guarantee the appropriate vocabulary learning due to their immense educational value. The present work is centered on the significance of the application of foam crafts (didactic material made of foam) in the vocabulary teaching-learning process. Additionally, the purpose of this research is to show other teachers that foam crafts are a didactic option to optimize the vocabulary teaching as it was demonstrated in the seventh basic year students at escuela de educación básica particular católica Jesús el Salvador during the 2015-2016 school year. It is fundamental to mention that some techniques and instruments, such as, surveys, interviews, observation, questionnaires, and observation guide, were applied in order to collect and present information in a mathematical and statistical way.
