This study aims to argue the introduction of a programming environment, Scratch, to improve second language learning. When planning a didactic proposal in a specific school context, a series of problems rose which made the concrete study of the problem of a specific population worth considering: second-grade students with learning difficulties whose affective filter may be affecting their learning process. These difficulties increase when a foreign language conveys learning process. First step of a reconverted study is to verify if a proposal which integrates programming and foreign language will allow to increase their motivation facing foreign language learning besides favouring the acquisition of it.
