Abstract

This study aimed to describe the implementation of bilingual flashcards as a learning media in teaching English vocabulary to kindergarten students at Singaraja Montessori School, and to explore teachers' opinions regarding its advantages and disadvantages. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, involving three kindergarten teachers as research subjects. Data were collected through document study, participant observation, in-depth interviews, and open-ended questionnaires. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of analysis and further refined through thematic analysis to identify key patterns and deeper insights. The results showed that bilingual flashcards were implemented during the whilst-activity as a media to introduce topics during circle time, with each teacher having a different role. The learning strategy used was interactive game-based activities, namely Guess the Animal, Match the Animal, and Find the Bilingual Flashcards. Besides that, bilingual flashcards were also used in the post-activity stage as a media to review vocabulary. Teachers implemented formative assessment by observing students' understanding through verbal interaction and activity participation. In addition, all kindergarten teachers expressed positive opinions about using bilingual flashcards in teaching English vocabulary. They believed that this media helped increase students' motivation, made it easier to memorize and remember vocabulary, made learning more enjoyable, enhanced student engagement, and was highly suitable for the characteristics of kindergarten students. However, they also identified several disadvantages, including limited visibility due to flashcard size, the potential for increased noise in the classroom, higher demands for teacher creativity, less effectiveness for non-visual students, and the tendency for students to become dependent on bilingual flashcards. These findings suggest that while bilingual flashcards offer many advantages in supporting vocabulary for young learners, their use should be balanced with strategies that address the disadvantages identified during the implementation.
