a. Opening The third meeting was conducted on Friday, 13
th
October 2009. IA started the lesson by greeting the students and checking students’
attendance and asking about the students’ condition. IA told the students that they would learn about “Asking for
Permission”. The situation was quiet because they have not known yet about what asking for permission is.
b. Main Activity · Aspect of meaning
In the presentation phase, IA asked the students to look at the picture and read the dialogue. When IA read the sentence “May I go to

the toilet” suddenly one of the boy went forward to ask permission to go to the toilet. She asked him to say in English but he couldn’t because
he did know the meaning and she explained. She said to the students if they wanted to ask permission, they should use expressions of asking for
permission such as “May I…..?” Could I…..?”, and the responses are such as yes certainly, yes, please, sure, of course, be careful. After
reading the words, she asked them to give the meaning of the
expressions of asking for permission and write on their note book. Some of them asked the teacher to give the meaning. The teacher tried to help
the students by giving the answer and motivating them to memorize the meaning of the sentences that had given.
· Aspect of spelling To improve the students’ ability in spelling, the teacher wrote
some expression of asking permission on the board and asked the students to write them down on their book. May I go home now? May I
borrow your book?, May I return your book?, May I clean the blackboard?, May I sweep the floor? After all of the words were
mastered well, IA cleaned the board, then. IA asked the students to write the expression of asking permission on the board and to spell them along
with her. Later, she asked them randomly to spell the words alone. She also asked them to spell the expression of asking for permission
repeatedly.

· Aspect of pronunciation In improving the students’ ability to pronounce the new words
related to asking permission, in this activity, the students had to practice the dialogue by using role play. She asked them to repeat after the
teacher. Students did role play according to the book in good pronunciation, however, there were some who still mispronounced. The
teacher corrected them. They practiced role play with their partner. · Aspect of using words
The last step of improving English vocabulary mastery by experiential learning was teaching how to use the words. After the
students were trained how to know the meaning, the spelling, and the pronunciation of new words, then in this activity, IA gave some
exercises to the students individually to complete the sentences using suitable words provided in the box. She asked to write the words to
make asking for permission in correct sentence and the answers were checked together. Then the teacher and the students were practicing the
topic about asking for permission. c. Closing
