Description: This research deals with the analysis of materials used by teachers for teaching children in EFL classes. The main purpose was to analyze the use of materials in terms of their pertinence to the topic and to the objectives of the lesson; it was also considered the appropriateness to the students’ level and to the students’ age. This research was applied to an elementary school in Quito and the participants were children from the 4th, 5th, and 6th grades; their ages were between 8 to 10 years old. The process consisted in observing ten classes and the information collected was tabulated and analyzed using the quantitative and qualitative methods. Main conclusions of this research showed that the types of supplementary materials most frequently used for teaching children in 4th, 5th, and 6th grades were: whiteboard, handouts, pictures, and flashcards. In addition, the highest frequency of use of supplementary materials was found in the fifth grade as a result of the regular use of pictures and the whiteboard. Finally, visual materials were the most frequently type of resources used in the observed classes.
