Kata Kunci: proses belajar vocabulary, anak tuna grahita. Bahasa inggris diajarkan di tingkat sekolah menengah pertama. Salah satu komponen penting dalam pembelajaran bahasa inggris adalah vocabulary. Vocabulary English adalah kosa kata yang membangun suatu bahasa. Pada kenyataanya, bahasa inggris tidak hanya diajarkan di sekolah menengah pertama umumakan tetapi juga diajarkan di sekolah khusus yaitu sekolah dasar luar biasa untuk anak berkebutuhan khusus. Salah satu anak yang berkebutuhan khusus adalah tuna grahita. Tuna grahita didefinisikan dengan IQ yang rendah yaitu dibawah 70. Program pendidikan untuk anak semacam ini haruslah didesain, diimplementasikan, dan dinilai secara sistematik sehingga pembelajarannya dapat optimal sesuai kebutuhan siswa. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan kegiatan siswa dalam pengajaran kosakata untuk siswa cacat mental di kelas tujuh di SMPLB Negeri Jepara pada tahun ajaran 2013/2014 dan kegiatan guru dalam pengajaran kosakata untuk siswa cacat mental di kelas tujuh di SMPLB Negeri Jepara pada tahun ajaran 2013/2014.

Sedangkan interview dilakukan dengan guru bahasa inggris untuk mendapat informasi yang lebih lengkap. Dari penemuan penelitian ini, kurikulum SMPLB bertujuan hanya untuk memperkenalkan kata dalam bahasa inggris kepada siswa-siswanya. Tipe silabus yang digunakan yaitu silabus berdasarkan topic materi. Materi yang diajarkan lebih sederhana dan ringan. Metode yang digunakan oleh guru adalah Tanya jawab, penjelasan, TPR (Total Physical Respose) dan diskusi. Sistem evaluasinya ada dua yaitu lisan dan tertulis. Permasalahan yang munculdari proses belajar mengajar yaitu perbedaan kemampuan siswa, kurang mempunyai inisiatif, butuhwaktu lama menyelesaikan satu topik, dan ketergantungan terhadap guru dalam pemerolehan kata baru. Berdasarkan penemuan, penulis menyarankan bagi guru untuk lebih bersabar dalam mengajar dikarenakan karakteristik anak. Guru sebaiknya melakukan pendekatan kepada masing- masing siswa serta membuat situasi belajar senyaman mungkin agar siswa lebih aktif dan menerima pelajaran dengan baik. x
