First Cycle RESEARCH FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION
When the picture had been hidden, the students were asked to open their eyes and guessed what picture was missing. At first, each of the students shouted out an
answer. However, none of them answered correctly or respond inappropriately. Then, the teacher led them to the answer by using the chant that had been done before.
Some students shouted “door” After that, the teacher asked them to answer
completely by saying “That is a door”. The teacher gave some instructions by raising her hands up for “quiet time” and lowering her hands for “answer in unison time”.
For additional information, the teacher had explained the student in the beginning about raising and lowering hands for choral response. This game lasted till all of the
pictures were succeeded or guessed. In the next activity, the students were asked about parts of the classroom in
their groups. The teacher divided the students into three groups based on their tables. The red tables were the Red Group, the yellow tables were the Yellow Group, and the
blue tables were the Blue Group. After that, the teacher asked each group to answer together, in unison, her question about parts of the classroom. The teacher asked the
students “what is that?” and the students should answer “that is a mention the
thing ”. This was aimed to make sure whether the students understood about the parts
of the classroom. In this game, the teacher used her hands gesture again so that the students could answer in unison.
After that the students were asked to make a circle. The teacher asked them to play “pass the plastic bag”. The rule of the game was that all of the students sang

the 1,2,3 while the teacher was passing the plastic bag to the next student. The plastic bag contained the pictures of parts of the classroom. When it came to ten, one of the
students who got the plastic bag would get the assignment. The assignment was to guess what picture was in the plastic bag. The student took one of the pictures on his
or her own but he or she could not look at the plastic bag while taking the picture. Actually, the teacher should have asked the students with a question “what is that?”
and then that student answered completely by saying “that is a mention the thing”. In this occasion, asking the students personally was avoided because the researcher
focused on the choral response. Then, the teacher asked his or her group the group whose member got the assignment to answer together. The teacher led them to the
answer. After that, the teacher asked the whole class to repeat in unison about what picture it was. This time, the teacher gave instructions to the students to answer in
unison by using gestures of her hands again. After that, the students shouted out “that is a door” together.
For the next activity, the teacher put the pictures in some different places. This game was called
“Run To”. The rule was that the teacher chose six students to come in front and asked them to run and touch the thing mentioned by the teacher. After
that, the teacher asked the other students who had not gotten the turn to ask those six students by saying in unison
“friends, what is that?” and those six students should answer it in unison, too. Here, the teacher gave signal by raising and lowering her
hands for the students to respond in unison. 32
