ABSTRACT

Hana Sri Kusuma Wardani, 2013. Teaching Vocabulary by Using Games and
Pictures to the Fourth Grade Students of SD Muhammadiyah 22 Sruni
Surakarta. English Diploma Program, Faculty of Letters and Fine Arts,
Sebelas Maret University.
This final project report is written based on the job training done by the writer in

SD Muhammadiyah 22 Sruni Surakarta for two months. The writer focused on
teaching vocabulary by using games and pictures to the fourth grade students. The
objectives of this report are to describe the process of teaching vocabulary, to find
out the problems, to give solutions to the problems faced during the process of
teaching vocabulary and to describe the result of teaching vocabulary by using
games and pictures. Before teaching the students, the writer did class observation
and made lesson plan. Then, there were several steps in the process of teaching
vocabulary, i.e.: greeting, warming up, presentation, practice and closing. Besides,
there were several problems faced by the writer, i.e.: remembering vocabulary,
having mispronunciation and getting bored of the lesson. To solve the problems,
there were several solutions applied by the writer. They were: giving reward and
punishment, doing repetition, making a deal and singing a song. Moreover, the
writer also used games and pictures in the process of teaching vocabulary to the
fourth grade students. In grade IVA the writer used pictures, and then in grade
IVB the writer used games. In every daily exercise between grade IVA and IVB,
this could result in different scores. The average scores of grade IVA were lower
than that of grade IVB. It can be concluded that teaching vocabulary by using
games resulted in higher scores than teaching vocabulary by using pictures to the
fourth grade students of SD Muhammadiyah 22 Sruni Surakarta.
