Abstract
Vocabulary learning is a fundamental component in Arabic language
acquisition and requires a teaching approach capable of helping students
understand and retain vocabulary effectively. This research aimed to describe the
engagement and perceptions of students regarding the use of the Total Physical
Response (TPR) method in Arabic vocabulary learning in the seventh grade of AlMuqoddasah Junior High School (SMP). The research used a qualitative approach
with a case study research type that involved 32 students as participants. Data
were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews, and
documentation, and subsequently analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldana's
model. The research results indicated that the majority of students stated that the
TPR method helped them understand and remember vocabulary more easily.
Students appeared active in following instructions, showed high focus, and
responded to movements with enthusiasm. The interviews revealed that students
viewed movement-based learning as more enjoyable, less boring, and as
enhancing their learning motivation. Although there were technical constraints
such as limited classroom space, these obstacles did not affect the students'
positive perceptions of the TPR method. This research concluded that using the
TPR method was capable of increasing student engagement and building positive
perceptions in Arabic vocabulary learning, and provides recommendations for
integrating this method more systematically into learning at the junior high school
level.
