Abstract:
Kegiatan pengabdian ini dilaksanakan di SDN 2 Way Dadi, Kecamatan Sukarame, Kota Bandar Lampung, dengan peserta siswa kelas IV–VI. Tujuannya untuk meningkatkan minat dan kemampuan dasar Bahasa Inggris siswa melalui pendekatan pembelajaran menyenangkan (Fun Learning) dalam kegiatan English Day. Berdasarkan observasi, siswa masih kesulitan mengingat kosakata dan menggunakan Bahasa Inggris karena metode pembelajaran yang monoton. Oleh sebab itu, kegiatan ini dirancang melalui berbagai aktivitas interaktif seperti permainan edukatif, flashcards, kuis, Who am I? dan acak gambar. Kegiatan meliputi pembukaan, pre-test, pembelajaran inti, kerja kelompok melalui LKPD, dan post-test. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan motivasi, partisipasi, serta kemampuan siswa dalam memahami dan menggunakan kosakata Bahasa Inggris. Suasana belajar yang aktif dan kolaboratif membuktikan bahwa pendekatan Fun Learning efektif diterapkan di sekolah dasar.
This community service activity was conducted at SDN 2 Way Dadi, Sukarame District, Bandar Lampung City, involving upper-grade students (grades IV–VI). The program aimed to improve students’ interest and basic English skills through a Fun Learning approach in an English Day activity. Based on initial observations, students struggled to recall and use English vocabulary due to monotonous and limited practice methods. Therefore, the activity was designed with various engaging activities such as educational games, flashcards, quizzes, Who am I? and picture-matching exercises. The implementation included an opening session, a pre-test, the main Fun Learning lessons, group tasks using LKPD worksheets, and a post-test. The results showed significant improvement in students’ motivation, participation, and vocabulary mastery. The lively and collaborative learning atmosphere proved that the Fun Learning approach is effective for teaching English at the elementary school level.
