CRITICAL REPORT
Generally, the topic of this media is about feelings. I give the name of this media is stick
ball. This media helps the children at sixth elementary school to improving their vocabulary
because the children can express of their feelings by using English. Not only about new
expressing vocabulary they can get in this media but children will thinking another feelings that
they do not know besides the media, children will ask directly to the teacher. Vocabulary is one
of great skill that most suitable in using this media for teaching. Teacher should be know all
feelings that will appear in daily activity.
Besides vocabulary, it can use in teaching speaking because children will be tell about
when they feels happy, sad, and so on. They will more attracted to speaking english. This is
tahap awal to improving their speaking skill sejak dini. Teacher will use natural approach
through this media. They will comprehent then production what their thinking. To supporting
the use of this media should be looked by environtment side in order to children not only
learning but they will acquire the language in acquisition or exposure related the topic. I think it
will be create comfortable environment. For pronounciation, the teacher should be pronounce the
words of feeling clearly. After that, children follow together as the teacher said. The use of strees
on this media will prominented agar anak in order children will not bring the same mistake in
pronounce the words. That is why this media completed by how to pronounce the words
correctly. Indirectly, Grammar also can teach through this media, such as simple present tense,
for example, "I feel happy....." it is mean that teach the children remember that after subject
always paired with verb.
Unfortunately, this media has the weaknesses. I think for teaching listening, writing and
reading can not using this. When teaching writing, not supported by this media, how to write to
be good structure of writing. There is no correction to look their write about feelings. It is also
occur in teaching listening and reading because this media had been completed a little note to
help them simply understanding. I honestly think that this media ini is too simple in teaching
reading so, the children less acquire the new information.
