description This research shows that most students have little interest when speaking English in basic levels. Thus this problem of the devaluation of English is a result in a misuse of teaching resources regarding the subject, to the point where the teacher is limited simply to use the resources given in the book, without looking for extra material for the improvement the teaching of English. All of this has become a routine in which students do not take actively part of the class because of the low level of motivation in learning the English Language. With our research, we seek to provide tools to improve this somewhat passive teaching, making it more dynamic and active. In this way, we expect to get the more attention from the students. It also expected to increase the creativity of the teacher during class. As a final conclusion, we want to advise every EFL teacher to use learning games and fun activities as often as possible because they help to arise students interest, get their attention, and reach a high quality performance.
