Abstract:  At primary level students learn through meaningful activities. Being a teacher of grade four and five from a researcher’s prospective it became clear that while teaching in Grammar translation method (GTM) most of the students were not able to understand the lesson and what perceived was a lacking context and being boring. On the contrary, the Activity Based learning (ABL) is very helpful in raising the interest of the students and to make them learn in friendly environment. The aim of present research is to highlight the fact that ABL has proved to be more effective in teaching students by inventing or creating, and ABL equips teachers with many activation arms in order to manage the students according to their mental and physical context. The tool of data collection was based on interviewing from the teachers to know that to what extent they consider ABL as an effective learning method to magnify the creative effect regarding the student perception.
