Abstract

This thesis discusses the effectiveness of the talking stick learning model on class students' English learning outcomes IV SD Negeri 21 Palembang. This research aims to determine (1) the English learning outcomes of fourth grade students at SD Negeri 21 Palembang (2) to determine the English learning outcomes of students using the talking stick learning model (3) to determine whether the takking stick learning model is effective on language learning outcomes.
