1.1. General Background of the Study
As
we see, children’s curiosity is very high. As Donald (2004: 4) says that (the child) actively tries to make
sense of the world and asks questions, (2001, 4). They will try to search
information about something that they want to know. They also ask something
that they feel new and strange for them. They ask adults or people around them
everything they want to know. Indeed they ask the information to people they
have just known.
Because
of the high curiosity of children, I view that children songs are very good as
media to teach English pronunciation. It is because the language that is used
in the songs is English. Children are not accustomed to English. And based on
that reason, children will try to do any efforts to know much about the songs.
If the children have a willing to know
the songs, they will try to learn anything related to the songs.
Here,
I emphasize the pronunciation of English. I choose the pronunciation because of
the differences between the two languages-English and Indonesian. There are
many differences between English and Indonesian especially in pronunciation. As
we see, the differences between English and Indonesian are very significant.
Therefore, there are many students of Elementary School especially the students
of SDN 01 Sekaran Gunungpati, who
pronounce English words in correctly.????????
