Abstract: In recent years many scholars have argued that language teachers have two vital roles both as trainers of helping students acquire language skills and as agents of helping students become aware of moral values. As a consequence, it is necessary for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers to be able to develop their teaching materials in order that at the same time they cannot merely teach their students’ English language skills but also develop the moral value awareness of their students. For this reason, this article aims at proposing the words of crime that EFL teachers can uses for their teaching materials to help the students develop their language skills as well as their awareness of moral values in the classroom. To meet this aim, the article firstly focuses its discussion on the importance of word in English Language Teaching (ELT). It then exlpores the understanding of crime. For the next exploration, the words of crime in ELT are presented in this article. Finally, it provides the sample materials designed with the words of crime. At the end, the article can hopefully become a considered material for EFL teachers to develop their teaching materials.
