Description: In the present study we investigated the use of supplementary materials for teaching children in EFL classes and the main purpose was to determine and analyze the type of supporting materials used for children in EFL classes. This study was conducted in Cuenca. The participants were three experienced teachers and 83 students, 45 female and 38 male ranging in age from 8 to 10 years old. The students were attending to 4th, 5th and 6th grades at a private elementary school. The instruments were two surveys, one observation format, one questionnaire and three charts. Over a period of three weeks, 30 classes were observed, 10 per grade. During the classes, the observation and description sheets were completed. After each class two volunteer students completed a survey. When the observation process concluded a survey was also administered to teachers. The information collected was analyzed using qualitative and quantitative approaches. This research demonstrated that in EFL classes supplementary materials are used frequently, being the visual ones the most used and the teachers applied them properly in terms of pertinence, appropriateness, and quality.
