The Effect of Using Bingo Game on the Students' Vocabulary Achievement

Abstract

Vocabulary is a basic of language. The quality of someone’s language skill depends on his quality and quantity of vocabulary they have. In learning vocabulary, many students have difficulty in memorizing the meaning of the word. Bingo game can be an alternative way in teaching learning vocabulary. This research was an experimental research. The research design was quasi experimental research, and the research respondents were the seventh grade students at SMPN 01 Bangsalsari. The students’ vocabulary scores were analyzed by using t-test formula. Based on the t-test analysis, the result showed that the computation statistical value of t-test with significant level of 5% was 3. 96 while the value of t-table with the Degree of freedom 68 was 2. 00. It means that the statistical value of t-test was higher than the computation of statistical value of ttest (3. 96> 2.00) which means that the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected. On the

other

hand, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. Thus, it can be stated that the use of Bingo game significantly affected the students’ vocabulary achievement.
