Key words: Whole Brain Teaching (WBT), Kosakata Bahasa Inggris
Siswa Sekolah Dasar diharapkan untuk menguasai kosakata bahasa Inggris yang cukup untuk mendukung kecakapan bahasa Inggris mereka pada tingkatan berikutnya. Mereka tidak dapat mengekspresikan ide atau pendapat mereka dalam bahasa Inggris tanpa mengetahui kosakata bahasa Inggris. Berdasarkan kurikulum, siswa Sekolah Dasar sebagai pemula diharapkan mampu menggunakan bahasa Inggris lisan sederhana dalam lingkup sekolah. Oleh karena itu, siswa harus menguasai kosakata bahasa Inggris dengan baik. Faktanya, penguasaan kosakata bahasa Inggris siswa kelas lima SDN 3 Telukwetan Jepara tahun ajaran 2013/2014 masih dibawah nilai standar minimal. Permasalahan tersebut terjadi karena guru hanya menggunakan metode terjemahan dalam mengajar kosakata. Dalam hal ini penulis ingin mengenalkan metode baru yang bernama Whole Brain Teaching (WBT). WBT adalah metode yang terdiri dari tujuh aktivitas, yaitu Class-Yes, Classroom rules, Teach-Okay, Mirror, Hand and Eyes, Switch, and Scoreboard.
Penelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk menemukan apakah ada perbedaan yang berarti dari penguasaan kosakata bahasa Inggris pada siswa kelas lima SDN 3 Telukwetan Jepara tahun ajaran 2013/2014 sebelum dan sesudah diajar menggunakan Whole Brain Teaching (WBT).
