Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk meningkatkan motivasi belajar dan meningkatkan kemampuan penguasaan kosa kata Bahasa Inggris pada siswa SD yang berada di pedesaan. Peneliti menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan quasi experimental design. Jenis quasi experimental design yang dipilih adalah nonequivalent control group design dengan memasukan pretes-posttes pada kelompok kontrol dan eksperimen dalam menentukan skor perbandingan tingkat kemampuan sebelum dan sesudah mendapat perlakuan. Peneliti mengambil sampel dari masing-masing sekolah sebanyak 15 siswa kelas 5 dari SDN Buaran Bambu 1 Kab. Tangerang sebagai kelas eksperimen dan SDN Periuk 4 Kota Tangerang sebagai kelas kontrol. Hasil temuan dari penelitian ini adalah pada umumnya tingkat motivasi belajar siswa SDN Buaran Bambu 1 mengalami peningkatan, hal itu terlihat dari nilai terendah pada pre-tes 15 dan post-test meningkat menjadi 35. Akan tetapi pemberian perlakuan sebanyak 6 pertemuan tidaklah cukup untuk meningkatkan prestasi siswa SDN Buaan bambu 1 dalam penguasaan kosa kata bahasa Inggris, apabila dibandingkan dengan SDN Periuk 4 Kota Tangerang yang nilai terendah pre-test mencapai 35 dan post test 50. Sehingga hipotesis dapat disimpulkan bahwa, H 0 diterima dan H a ditolak yang artinya tidak terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan dalam peningkatan penguasaan kosa kata Bahasa Inggris dengan menggunakan metode TPR pada siswa SD yang berada di desa.

The aims of this research were to find out whether there are good response and improvement of students’ speaking skill between before and after being taught through Communicative Language Teaching (CLT).

The instrument was oral test. The result of the research showed that there was improvement of the students’ speaking skill in actively communicative by using CLT. The result of t-test showed that t was bigger than ttable. The result of tcount was 4.2105 and ttable was 2.0021. It means that the researcher’s hypothesis (H1), there is significant difference of post-test scores between experiment class and control class is accepted. The average score of pre-test in experiment class is 67.33 while the average score of pre-test in control class is 66.50. The average of the post-test score in experiment class was 83.00 while the average of the post-test score in control class was 75.00. It showed that CLT can improve the students’ speaking skill.

This research is expected to know whether there is significant different score of vocabulary test before and after treatment has been given. This research is a quasiexperimental design where the population is Tenth Grade of SMA Muhammadiyah 2 Tangerang. The researcher took sample from X.4 class as control class and X.5 class as experiment class. The sample is 40 students for each class. In collecting the data, the researcher used interview, pretest and posttest of vocabulary and applied peer drilling as a technique in teaching learning process. Furthermore the researcher calculated the data by using t test. In addition the hypothesis test result at the degree of significance 0.05 indicates that in control group H₀ is rejected and H₁ is accepted because t count > t table (4.70 > 1.684) where there is a little significant difference of student's vocabulary test whereas in experiment class, H₀ is rejected and H₁ is accepted with t count > t table (18.08 > 1.684).
