<![CDATA[English learning at the elementary school level is not implemented uniformly, including at SDN 21 Sungai Geringging, where fifth-grade students have not received specific English lessons. This community service activity aimed to map students’ mastery of everyday English vocabulary through a quiz competition. The activity was conducted on June 17, 2026, involving 15 students divided into three groups. An educational-participatory approach with competitive elements was applied through two stages, namely an independent group round and a fast-response round. The quiz covered Islamic Religious Education, Mathematics, and English; however, the analysis in this article focused on 11 English questions consisting of five multiple-choice questions, one essay question, and five fast-response questions. The results showed that Group 1 answered 8 English questions correctly, while Group 2 and Group 3 each answered 5 questions correctly. In the vocabulary mapping from the independent round, all groups correctly recognized good morning, green, apple, and I love you, while father and eight were not answered correctly by all groups. These findings indicate that the students had already recognized several everyday English words and expressions despite not having received specific English instruction at school. Therefore, the quiz competition can be used as a simple medium to obtain an initial picture of students’ English vocabulary mastery and may provide supporting information for the school in designing more targeted English introduction activities.]]>
