The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of using Storytelling technique
in teaching vocabulary for fifth grade students of Secondary School of SDN 1 Peukan
Pidie, Sigli. An experimental design was used in this study and the data were
collected through a test as the instrument. The population of this study was all the
students of SDN 1 Peukan Pidie, Sigli and two classes were taken as the sample.
These classes were classified into the experimental and the control class. The
experimental class was taught by using the Storytelling technique, while the control
class was taught by memorizing words. The pre-test and the post-test were used in
collecting the data. The collected data were then analyzed by Microsoft Excel. The
research finding showed that the mean score of the post-test of the experimental class
was higher than that of the control class (77,1 > 65,1). Furthermore, the result of t-test
of the experimental class was higher than that of t-test of the control class (10,98 >
7,45). These data indicated that the students taught by using Storytelling technique
achieved better score than those taught by using memorizing words. Hence, the
alternative hypothesis is accepted and null hypothesis is rejected
