Importance of Using Didactic Materials in Learning Foreign Languages in Elementary Grades

Abstract

This article explores the significance of using didactic materials in teaching foreign languages to elementary-grade students. With the increasing demand for multilingual competence in a globalized world, early exposure to foreign languages has become critical. Didactic materials, ranging from visual aids to interactive digital resources, play a vital role in facilitating language acquisition in young learners. By reviewing existing literature, theoretical frameworks, and practical classroom implementations, the article highlights how these materials enhance comprehension, retention, and active participation in language learning. The study concludes that integrating didactic materials is essential for effective language education in early childhood and should be prioritized in curriculum design.
