Abstract
The objective of this action research was to improve the pronunciation of the class VII C students at SMP N 3 Tempel in the academic year of 2013/2014 through the use of role plays. This action research was conducted in two cycles. The cycles consisted of nine meetings in total. The research involved role plays that were conducted in pairs and in groups. The role plays were based on the language functions such as asking and giving service, asking likes and dislikes, showing directions, and describing people. Conducting integrated pronunciation teaching, reading aloud, and directed response tasks were the complements of the main activities. The data were obtained by observing the teaching and learning process, interviewing the students and collaborators, and taking photograph. The validity of the data was gained by applying democratic, outcome, process, catalytic, and dialogic validity. The research results show that the students‟ pronunciation improved through the use of role plays. The students were more confident and were not afraid of making mistakes when speaking. They had used right intonation. They had put correct stress when pronouncing words. They actively participated during the teaching and learning process. The mini dictionaries with phonetic transcriptions had increased students awareness of having correct pronunciation.
