1. Let’s Warm Up With The Chant and The Wrap Up Chant
According to Brewster, Ellis, and Girard 2002, p. 168, songs, rhymes, and chants can be used in many different ways. Chants can be placed in any part of the
teaching. The use of the chants in the opening section is to draw students’ attention and also boost their motivation in learning. Whereas, in the closing section, the
chants acted as a powerful aid to memory. According to Graham 2006, using rhythms in chants offers students a very fast track for learning. By the end of the
lesson, the students indirectly memorized the new vocabularies, stress, rhythm, and the intonation due to the repetitive drills because of the enjoyment in chanting.
Therefore, the researcher provided the chants in the first section and the last section of the designed materials. The jazz chants provided by the researcher were used as
a trigger for the students in learning English. The researcher believed that if the whole materials are jazz chants only, then the students might feel bored. This
become a reason for the researcher to combine the materials with different kinds of exercises to be more interesting.
2. Grammar Focus
This section was to drill the students to make good sentences with the correct pattern. According to Graham 2006, jazz chants can reinforce grammar and
develop and practice vocabulary. Jazz chants can also be used to practice the pattern PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
of everyday conversations. The researcher also provided the examples on every unit to help the students in understanding the topics.
3. Let’s Practice
This section provided some exercises for the students to practice. Each unit had different kind of exercises, such as role-play, fill in the blanks, completing the
dialogs and classroom presentations. This chapter has showed the research findings and discussed the answer of
the two research questions mentioned in the first chapter. The next chapter is the conclusion and recommendations. The next chapter will conclude the findings of
the research. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI

CHAPTER V CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
There are two sub-chapters in this section. They are conclusions and recommendations. The conclusion part is to conclude the research, whereas the
other part contains the recommendations for the materials designed and for the future researchers.
A. Conclusions
The objectives of this research are to answer the research questions, firstly how is a set of English speaking materials for grade eight of the English club
students designed? and secondly what does the design look like? In order to answer the first question, the researcher used
Kemp’s model of instructional design and Borg and Gall
’s RD methods. In the first part, that is research and information collecting, the researcher
collected the information by interviewing the English club teacher. The next step was planning. In this part the researcher set the learning goals, topics, objectives
and general purposes of the designed materials. The third part was to develop preliminary from of products. In this section the researcher listed the subject content
and also selected teachinglearning activities for the speaking materials. After designing the speaking materials, the researcher distributed the evaluation sheets to
five experts to validate the designed materials. The last step was to revise the designed materials. The researcher revised the materials based on the comments
