Communication focused activities are well known for being motivating and providing good opportunity for real use of the language. When given this kind of activity, the learners are provided with the necessary “comprehensible input” (Krashen, 1985 ) that supports them in real conversations, unlikely a list of grammar rules that does nothing but demotivate the students. In other words, this approach brings a development in fluency at the expense of a decrease in accuracy (Richards, 1999, p.3).
