Abstract

This research was motivated by the observation that fifth-grade students at SDN Setonopande 1 Kediri had low speaking abilities in English. Many students lacked confidence and fluency, often struggling to express themselves or understand simple instructions in English. The researcher aimed to find out whether the role play technique could improve the students' speaking skills. The problems in this study were: (1) What is the students’ speaking ability before being taught using the role play method? (2) What is the students’ speaking ability after being taught using the role play method? (3) Is there any significant effect of using the role play method to increase students’ speaking ability? This research used a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design (onegroup pre-test and post-test). The sample was 21 fifth-grade students. The instrument used was a speaking test focusing on fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, accuracy, and confidence. The results showed a significant improvement in the students’ speaking ability. The average score increased from 55 in the pre-test to 84.25 in the post-test. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test showed a significance value of 0.000, indicating a significant difference between the pretest and post-test results. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the role play technique is effective in improving the speaking ability of fifth-grade students at SDN Setonopande 1 Kediri. The use of role play creates a fun, interactive, and contextual learning environment that increases student confidence and engagement in speaking English.
