| dc.description.abstract | Songs are important tools in teaching English, especially practical for language learning with children. They are rhythmic, repetitive, and emotional; these properties of songs make the process of acquiring language as effortless as possible. This research is based on analysis of the application of song-based activities as a teaching resource to improve writing skills among sixth-grade students in a school in Latacunga in 2025. A quantitative pre-test and post-test design was used to figure out the writing competencies of these students, including coherence, comprehension, spelling, and vocabulary. The sample consisted of 17 students, aged ten years old. The data reveal a positive change after the intervention; namely, the number of students with excellent writing skills has doubled. These results imply that through the addition of songs to the teaching of English, they can mainly promote the growth of writing skills, and this can also be a basis for the development of further educational programs. | |
