Abstract

Estika, Ayu Lia. 2025. Improving Students' Vocabulary Mastery through TPR (Total Physical Response) assisted by Song Media in the Fourth Graders. Skripsi, English Education Department, Faculty of Language and Arts Education, IKIP PGRI Bojonegoro, Advisor (I) Meiga Ratih Tirtanawati, M.Pd., (II) Chyntia Heru Woro Prastiwi, M.Pd. Keywords: vocabulary, TPR assisted by song, classroom action research. Vocabulary mastery is an important aspect of learning English, which is still challenging for elementary school students. This study aims to improve the vocabulary mastery of grade 4 students of SD Negeri Bareng 1 through TPR (Total Physical Response) assisted by song media. the researcher used classroom action research based on the Kemmis and Taggart model involving 24 grade 4 students of SD Negeri Bareng 1 in the 2024/2025 academic year. This study uses a mixed-method approach by combining quantitative data through vocabulary tests (pre-test and post-test) and qualitative data through interviews, observations, questionnaires, and field notes. Students must exceed the KKM (Minimum Completion Criteria) of at least 75% of the total students in one class. The average pre-test score was 61.45. This means that only 20.83% of all students can exceed the KKM (KKM 75). After implementing TPR assisted by song media, the post-test results showed a significant increase, with an average score reaching 85.62, and 87.5% of students scored above the KKM. Data observations and field notes also showed that learning activities became more active. The results showed that the use of TPR assisted by song media effectively improved students’ vocabulary mastery in just one learning cycle.
