tersebut ditentukan dengan menggunakan teknik cluster sampling.

Setelah mendapatkan data dari Pra-uji dan Pasca-uji, Penulis menganalisis

data tersebut menggunakan rumus ttest untuk menguji hipotesis yang telah

ditetapkan. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, ditemukan bahwa nilai dari tobserved= -8.380

dan ttable= 2.04. Data analisis menunjukkan bahwa tobserved lebih tinggi dari ttable.

Hasil dari Pengujian Hipotesis menentukan bahwa Hipotesis Alternatif (Ha) yang

menyatakan bahwa mengajar kosa kata menggunakan teka teki silang bergambar

memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap Murid kelas tujuh (VII) MTsN

Katingan Tengah telah diterima dan Hipotesis Nihil yang menyatakan bahwa

mengajar kosa kata menggunakan teka teki silang bergambar tidak memberikan

pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap Murid kelas tujuh (VII) MTsN Katingan Tengah
