Abstract

Writing is one manifestation of literacy competencies. The frequently used vocabulary in writing/reading is called favorite vocabulary. This research aims to produce (1) identification of favorite vocabulary of elementary-school students, (2) comparison of vocabulary between early grade elementary-school and the advanced. Documentation and comparison method are used for writings by 305 elementary school students, consisting of 75 early grade classes and 230 advanced classes. A collection of these writings was collected in a book entitled “My Book and My World.” with the theme: Me and Books, (2) Books, Grandma/Grandfather, and my family, (3) Books, and COVID-19. Participants came from various regions in Indonesia. All participants used 750 words as the basis for writing length. To determine the favorite vocabulary, we used the descriptive-quantitative method. The results showed that the favorite vocabularies of early and advanced grade students were the same, namely in Bahasa “covid, mama, corona masker, house, papa, pandemi”. From the comparison of early grade and advanced, it appeared that there was an increase of 1,093 entries from the initial class to the advanced class. On the other hand, “mama” vocabulary is used more than “papa.” It shows that “mama” is closer in the world of children than “papa.” This article is expected to be useful for learning in elementary school.
