Vocabulary, Matching Picture, Elementary level.Abstract
This study investigates the effect of the Matching Picture method on students’ vocabulary mastery at the fifth grade of SDN Kalanganyar 1. The research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a control group and an experimental group. Both groups consisted of 30 students. The experimental class was taught using the Matching Picture method, while the control class received conventional instruction. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests and analyzed using descriptive statistics and an independent samples t-test. The results showed a significant improvement in the vocabulary mastery of the experimental group, with mean scores increasing from 40.67 to 70.67. In contrast, the control group showed a smaller improvement, from 40.00 to 55.00. The statistical analysis confirmed the significance of the difference between the two groups. These findings indicate that the Matching Picture method is an effective and practical strategy for enhancing vocabulary learning in elementary school settings, particularly in environments with limited access to digital technology.
