Resumen
The design of contextualized, appropriate materials for the development of the communicative competence, this study shows, is effective when trying to better the performance of high school students, in this case at Inmaculada Concepcion School in Villagorgona-Candelaria, about to take the standardized English test that comes with the Saber 11 exam in Colombia. With a battery of instruments that collect data, measure the impact of the activities proposed and the materials used, and with the results of the pre and post tests, it is shown that the intervention with the materials created by the teacher and the students raised significantly the level of the communicative competence of students. Also, questions are raised as what the best way would be to improve critical analysis competencies that were not altered by the activities designed.
