So, it is framed in the qualitative methodology under the case study method. The key informants were thirty eighth-year students surveyed as a study technique. The results allowed us to observe that the application of didactic strategies of a playful and interactive nature favors students' cognitive skills development. Therefore, it allows them to understand literary texts and develop autonomous learning.
