Thesis. Surakarta: English Education Department Graduate Program, Sebelas Mater University, 2011. This thesis was written to improve the students’ English Vocabulary Mastery. The objectives of this research are: (1) To know whether SAVI method can improve vocabulary mastery of the fourth grade students of MI NU Kumpulsari OKU Timur in 2010/2011 academic year; and (2) To know the strengths and the weaknesses of SAVI method when it is used to teach vocabulary. The research was conducted in two cycles from May to September 2011. The procedure of this research consists of identifying problems, planning the action, implementing the action, observing the action, reflecting the result of the research. The subjects of the research are the fourth grade students of MI NU Kumpulsari OKU Timur. The quantitative data were derived from pre-test and post-test which were analyzed by using descriptive statistics. The qualitative data were derived from observation, interview, field note, questionnaire, and document analysis which were analyzed by using constant comparative method. The result of the research shows that SAVI can improve students’ English vocabulary. There is significant improvement of students’ English vocabulary in the result of pre-test and post-test of cycle 1, and post-test of cycle 2. The students’ vocabulary mastery of pre-test was 50.833, post-test 1 was 71.875, and post-test 2 was 82.291. The students got improvement on meaning, spelling, pronunciation, and using words. Through SAVI, the students were involved actively in the learning process because they were motivated and confident in joining the class. Using SAVI was effective to raise the students’ creativity and curiosity in learning vocabulary. The students had better understanding about the meaning of words and they become more familiar with the daily words, they could pronounce and spell the words better after implementation of the research. They were also able to use the words in simple sentences. Anyhow, in implementing SAVI, teacher should provide much time because there were four steps which should be done. It was not easy for the teacher to control the students to do the phases of SAVI well. The students should do the somatic, auditory, visual, and intellectual phases. It needs more time to make the students understand the material well trough those phases. Some suggestions will be directed to English teacher, the institution, the students, and other researcher. The teachers have to be creative in choosing media and method in order to make the students enthusiastic in joining the process of learning. To improve the students’ success in studying, the institution should be able to provide some media as the supporting facilities to help the students in learning especially vocabulary. Students should increase their motivation and enthusiasm in joining the process of teaching and learning.
