| 总结: | The aim of this study was to determine the effect of using nursery rhymes on thewriting performance of year six pupils in a primary school. The researcher used Expository TeachingModel for explaining meaningful learning by exposing a few nursery rhymes for writing an essay.Constructivism was also used to describe knowledge acquisition and motivation among the pupils.For research design, the researcher used a quasi-experimental design to determine the effect ofusing nursery rhymes on the writing performance for year six pupils in a primary school. Theexperimental group used nursery rhyme and control group used traditional method with text book. Asample of sixty pupils from year six pupils were selected and assigned to experimental group (n =30) and control group (n = 30) randomly. The researcher used several instruments, namely, preand post tests and a set of questionnaires. The reliability of the questionnaire wasrelatively high which was based on Cronbach Alpha = 0.807. Before the research wasconducted, a pre-test was given to both groups. The pre-test result for both groups showed themeans were almost the same for experimental (M = 38.07; SD = 7.21) and control (M = 32.33; SD =9.89) groups. Pair sample t-test was used to see the differences between pre and post test results.The post-test mean score for the experimental group was higher (M = 73.8; SD = 9.09) than thepost-test mean for the control group (M = 46.67; SD = 8.38). The t- test for the experimental groupshowed a significant difference between the pre and post tests [t(29) = -27.95, p |
