However, this aspect is usually ignored during the development of in-class activities. Therefore, this dissertation aims to design and implement motivational activities within the EFL classroom. To achieve this, ten activities were created based on communicative competence and active group participation. The activities were implemented in the 2nd year of Bachillerato. However, to check the adaptability of these activities, two of them were also implemented in two other groups of 1st and 3rd year of ESO. The results from in-class observations and a final questionnaire for students confirmed a positive impact of these activities on their motivation, as well as facilitating both content acquisition and oral participation in the classroom.
