<p>IMPROVING ENGLISH VOCABULARY MASTERY THROUGH TOTAL<br />PHYSICAL RESPONSE METHOD IN EARLY CHILDHOOD. In general, the language<br />component consists of three, namely grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation.<br />Vocabulary is a language center and is important for language learning. Without<br />sufficient vocab, one can not communicate effectively or express all his ideas either<br />orally or in writing. Teaching vocabulary especially in early childhood should be<br />emphasized, because having sufficient vocabulary will make it easier for children<br />to communicate. In addition, early childhood is a very vulnerable or golden age,<br />because at this time the child’s brain has accelerated the development of up to 80%<br />of the entire adult brain. Total Physical Response is the perfect method for learning<br />English for early childhood because the general purpose of the TPR method is<br />to teach oral language skills at the beginner level. Thus, students understand<br />spoken language before developing speaking skills, emphasizing the transfer of<br />communication information.</p>

Vocabulary learning is one of the most important fields in teaching English or any foreign language. One could learn all of the grammatical rules and exceptions that the language contains, but what if our brain did not store the needful amount of words to complete and utter the message that a person want to transmit ? The present research work aimed at promoting the use of Total Physical Response (TPR) method, as a technique to introduce English language vocabulary to EFL beginners. An overall of 150 students and 26 EFL teachers were involved in this study. To achieve the objectives of the study, class observation was used as an instrument to gain insight into learners’ attitudes and reactions toward English language learning. Questionnaire was also used to collect reliable data. The results obtained revealed that teaching English vocabulary through Physical Response allows students to learn faster and easier, since children find support from the physical representation of their facilatator or their peers.
