- Abstract
Pronunciation is one of the important aspects of language learning. The bad pronunciation will influence the understanding of the listener to grab the message. Song is one of the media that can be used to teach pronunciation. By using songs, students can learn how the word is pronounced. Thus, this paper discusses how to improve pronunciation through song on the third-grade students of SDN Cangkringan 2 by using the classroom action research method. Total of the students in this class is 21 students on the beginner level. The researchers conduct a cycle in this study, which consisted of reconnaissance, planning, enacting the plan and observing, and reflection. The result of the study showed that songs could improve students’ pronunciation and confidence. Even, one of the very shy students in the class is enjoying the lessons; she can pronounce the vocabulary correctly and confidently.
