Literature has always been seen as a great pillar for the acquisition and development of a
mother tongue; however, this relevance has traditionally become secondary when acquiring a
second or foreign language. Either for lack of training or for syllabus constraints, literature
continues being a great forgotten within the EFL classroom. For this reason, the purpose of
the present work is to design a didactic proposal in which literature is highly beneficial for
the acquisition of English as a second language.
Thus, through the use of the Shakespearean play A Midsummer Night’s Dream, a didactic
proposal has been designed to be developed in 7 sessions. This proposal intends that students
and teachers become aware of the importance of literature within the EFL classroom.
Literature provides students with valuable lexical resources, idiomatic phrases and
collocations. Besides, it contributes to enhancing students' personal and intercultural
relationships and fosters their critical thinking.
To achieve this purpose, this work will be divided into different parts. First, a theoretical
framework will be provided, in which the importance of literature and its benefits for second
language acquisition will be discussed. This section will also underscore the relevance of
using authentic materials in the classroom, the different types of reading (bottom-up vs.
top-down and Intensive vs. Extensive Reading), as well as the Three-Model Approach, as
described by Carter & Long (1991). This section will provide a solid foundation for our
didactic proposal. Following this theoretical framework, a brief description of the centre and
the group chosen to implement this proposal will be presented, as well as the justification for
the selected materials, the objectives of the proposal and the methodology employed. After
that, the didactic proposal will be presented, followed by a description of the assessment
criteria and the possible limitations of this proposal. Finally, some conclusions will be
provided.
