Abstract

Learning media play an essential role in helping students and teachers achieve educational goals. The use of engaging media can enhance the teaching and learning process. In this context, a spinning wheel was used as a tool to introduce and reinforce vocabulary in elementary school, creating a more interactive learning environment. The study aimed to investigate whether Spinning Wheel Media affected students’ vocabulary mastery, specifically among third-grade students at SDN 64 Sungai Raya. This research is a descriptive-quantitative study that employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test. Data were collected through a pre-test, treatment session, and post-test. The sample comprised 22 students from Class III A at SDN 64 Sungai Raya. Furthermore, the findings of this research indicated a significant improvement in students’ vocabulary mastery after the treatment. The post-test mean score was 90.2, compared to the pre-test mean score of 39.1. The t-test value was 13.19, and the effect size was 2.8, showing a strong effect. The hypothesis (Ha) was accepted, confirming that Spinning Wheel Media effectively enhanced students’ vocabulary, especially in learning the names of the days of the week.
