Yes, of course. I rely mainly on materials written in the target language for TL speakers. To lower affective filters the words/phrases are introduced in various related contexts before tackling a text. Ex: infographics prior to an informational paragraph, pictures with captions before narrative.

CI that is written for the sake of CI I usually encourage students to use for independent practice (the site Rockalingua comes to mind). I just don’t think most of it provides enough context to allow students insight into culturally appropriate use of the words and phrases they are learning.
