My Answer

1. my tittle accepted is “Improving Students’ Speaking Skills Using Hand Puppet” the reason I choose the
tittle because Speaking is one of the language skills that must be taught in order to teach English. One of the
most crucial abilities that children must master is how to speak. The focus of English instruction should be on
students' ability to communicate effectively through spoken language. This is due to the fact that you must
speak English correctly orally. And hand puppet as media for learning and can give performance are a well
know medium, although they are infrenquently employed in classroom, especially when I teaching english.
This puppet show is puppet with a box shaped for improve speaking by conversation expression or dialogue
a way that it can pique the interest of students attention, the puppets are brightly colored and include a variety
of characters. To make students’ interesting studying english by hand puppet to give effectively and efficiency
for learning.

1. how is the students’ speaking skill before and after using hand puppet media?
2. is the use of hand puppet media are effective to improve students’ speaking skill?

- according to the problem statement above, the objectives of this research as follow:
1. to find out the students’ speaking skill before and after using hand puppet media

3. I use the method is qualitative. Action research is defined in a variety of ways. “Regard it as a type of self-
reflective inquiry' by participants, conducted in order to increase knowledge of their activities in context with
a view to maximizing social justice,” MC.Teggaart and Kemmis write. Action Research involves taking a
self-reflective, critical, and systematic approach to exploring your own teaching contexts.A classroom action
research is usually conducted in a certain cycle. For this classroom action research, one cycle consists of two
meetings, which lasts on about 90 minutes or more. In each cycle, the researcher applied conversation activity
by using hand puppet in speaking class. This study used an action research model from Kemmis and Taggart,
which is a spiral from one cycle to the next. According to Kemmis and Taggart Arikunto. there are several
stages in this research, namely:
1. Planning (make a lesson plan)
2. Action (teaching speaking using hand puppet and collabolator with english teacher)
3. Observation (when action and I can to observe the students’ and evaluate are this media effective and
efficiency or not)
4. Reflection (the value of students’ when studying english speaking skills)
 This research was conducted in two cycles. The cycle is stopped when the data displayed in the field is
saturated; meaning that if there has been an increase in students' English speaking skills using hand puppet
to improve speaking skill.
