Abstract

This study's main goals were to: (1) determine the students' speaking abilities before they were taught using the Wordwall Game for eighth-grade students at MTs Salafiyah Syafiiyah; (2) determine the students' speaking abilities following teaching using the Wordwall Game for eighth-grade students at MTs Salafiyah Syafiiyah; (3) the significant effects of using Wordwall game media in learning speaking for eighth-grade students at MTs Salafiyah Syafi'iyah Seblak. This study used descriptive quantitative research; a pre-experimental design was applied using a pretest and post-test. All of the participants in this study were in class VIII, and the research sample consisted of 8D students. An oral test served as the measurement tool. The mean score on the pretest was 43.07, while the mean score on the post-test increased to 61.87. As a quantitative method, the researcher analyzed the data by t-test using SPSS version 25. Value Sig (2-tailed) = 0.00 0.05 is the outcome. The calculation's outcome showed that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted and the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected. It is clear from the calculation above that the impact on students' speaking abilities is significant. In conclusion, using a word wall game in teaching speaking is effective for 8th-grade students of MTs Salafiyah Syafiiyah SeblakThis study's main goals were to: (1) determine the students' speaking abilities before they were taught using the Wordwall Game for eighth-grade students at MTs Salafiyah Syafiiyah; (2) determine the students' speaking abilities following teaching using the Wordwall Game for eighth-grade students at MTs Salafiyah Syafiiyah; (3) the significant effects of using Wordwall game media in learning speaking for eighth-grade students at MTs Salafiyah Syafi'iyah Seblak.
