Abstract

The aim of this study was to identify the relationship between students' writing abilities and their vocabulary knowledge. The method of this research is quantitative using two instruments: a 30-item multiple choice vocabulary test and a writing competency test using descriptive paragraphs. To analyze it, the Pearson Product Moment Correlation Formula is used to identify it. The research sample consisted of 36 middle schools students at 8 grade. The results of research regarding the relationship between vocabulary mastery and writing ability of middle schools students in science class show that there is a low relationship and show that the research hypothesis is proven. Based on this research, students should learn and use their vocabulary skills more to become a good writer.
