This research was intended to find out whether there was a significant increase of the students` vocabulary achievement related to content words at the first grade of SMP Negeri 2 Gadingrejo before and after being taught through direct method. The pretest and the posttest with one group pretest-posttest, pre-experimental design was applied. The population of the research was the grade VII students of SMP Negeri 2 Gadingrejo in the year 2010/2011. Vocabulary test in the form of multiple choices was used as the instrument of the research and repeated measures t-test was accomplished to analyze the data.

After comparing the result of the pretest and the posttest score, it was found that there was significant difference, the increase of mean score of the students was 19.643 after the treatments. Based on the data analysis at the significant level of 0.05, it was noted that p=0.000. It was proved that the students` scores were significantly different (p, 0.05, p=0.000) and the students active learning was better. The result showed that the students taught through direct method seemed to be interested in learning vocabulary since the students could provide a good response during teaching learning process. The teaching learning process motivated the students to compete in asking and delivering the questions. The hypothesis proposed in this research was accepted.
