Description
Summary:<p>This study was aimed to develop and evaluate the Rhyme Song Module as an alternative</p><p>approach for English teachers. The study also analyses the effectiveness of the Rhyme</p><p>Song Module on the spelling and sounding achievement of seven years old children.</p><p>This is applied research by using quantitative research based on the ADDIE</p><p>instructional model, (i) Analysis; (ii) Design; (iii) Development; (iv) Implementation;</p><p>and (v) Evaluation. Using a quantitative approach with quasi-experiment method, the</p><p>results of the Pre-Test and Post-Test were analysed and summarized in the study.</p><p>Convenient sampling was used to select the participants of the study where 50 students</p><p>from Year One were chosen from a government funded primary school. The</p><p>participants were divided into two groups which were the control group and treatment</p><p>group with 25 students each. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential</p><p>analysis. The results obtained showed that the treatment group which the Rhyme Song</p><p>Module was applied showed a significantly higher achievement in their spelling and</p><p>sounding achievement. Results of the Independent T-test carried out showed a</p><p>significance difference between the sounding Post-Test for both the treated and control</p><p>group with sig (2-tailed) of Level 1=0.00, Level 2=0.00 and Level 3=0.00. The</p><p>Independent T-test also showed a significance difference between the spelling Post-</p><p>Test for both treated and control group with sig (2-tailed) of Level 1=0.00. Results of</p><p>Level 2 and Level 3 shows no significant difference with sig (2-tailed) of Level 2=0.13</p><p>and Level 3=0.56. In conclusion, the Rhyme Song Module is proven effective in</p><p>improving the spelling and sounding achievement of seven years old children. Overall,</p><p>the implication of this research is able to provide a dimension of thought for other</p><p>research and also teachers on the importance of music and the usage of nursery rhymes</p><p>in language teaching.</p>
