In this cycle the students ran their own vocabulary cards game ineffectively. The students were still hard to be managed; they tended to depend
the researcher help them in the process of making their own vocabulary and asked the other pairs to help the other students. Actually, it was quite good because the
students were willing to discuss it with their friends, but here, the researcher hoped that they can work in pairs in discussing the text. After all, the student
played their own vocabulary cards with fun and happy.

f. Asking students to bring a dictionary
The action was not really successful in encouraging the students to bring the dictionary. They felt lazy to borrow dictionaries from library. Although few
students put their dictionaries in on the table so that they could use it for another meeting, some students were still reluctant to do the same thing. They still
enjoyed sharing their dictionary with others. Even some students said that they did not have any dictionary.
R :
Kan da kamus kok nggak di pake? There was a dictionary. Why you did not use it?
S :
Bukan punya saya Miss. Lha lama Miss kalo pake kamus. Kan bisa tanya langsung sama Miss.
That was not mine, Miss. It took long time better I ask you directly.

The researcher felt that it was a little bit difficult to ask the students to open their dictionary when they found difficulties in pronouncing words. They
preferred to ask the researcher how to pronounce the words correctly than open up the dictionary. It was difficult in asking the students to have a good dictionary and
buy for themselves because some of them came from middle-low economic status. So that the researcher, even the teacher of English itself, could not force them to
have their own dictionary. Although the students could borrow dictionaries in library, but still, the library had no enough dictionaries to every student in the
class.
ET :
Biasanya menggunakan kamus saja. I usually use dictionary only
R :
Berarti setiap anak harus bawa kamus masing-masing ya Bu?
