This study used a mixed- method approach to discover how comprehensible input enhances the development of listening skills in Elementary students. To gather data, a survey and audiovisual materials, which included the comprehensible input approach, were used. Results elucidated that the majority of participants showed a positive attitude towards the comprehensible input approach. This state of mind helped them perform exceptionally during the application of the activities with audiovisual materials. Collectively, the results appear consistent with satisfactory comprehension. As a conclusion, students had an optimum performance in the video activities when using comprehensible input, which makes us suggest that comprehensible input materials enhance the development of listening skills in students.
