Abstract: The purpose of this study is to analyse different teaching materials for English in Grade 5. Three teaching materials for learning English as a second language and as foreign languagewere used. Two of the teaching materials were produced in Sweden and one was produced foran international market. The teaching materials were selected using a convenience selection.This study was made with use of both a quantitative and a qualitative comparative textanalysis, depending on the research question. The result showed that the two teachingmaterials produced in Sweden for learning English as a foreign language should focus moreon their oral assignments. The students using these teaching materials might not use Englishin other places than in the classroom and therefore it is important that they practice their oralproficiency during lessons. Another result shown in this study is that all of the teachingmaterials could benefit from allowing students to work more with cultural awareness.
