| dc.description.abstract | Teaching language, in this case is English, through literature is not a new phenomenon. However there
are still debates on it. Meanwhile the language teacher should be able to find interesting ways to teach English.
Due to the communicative competence target of teaching language, teaching English through literature can be
one of alternative that can be used in the class. It is because literature provides the learners with authentic
language materials that are good to improve the learners’ communicative competence. Having read the novel
entitles Little House in the Big Woods written by Laura Ingalls Wilder, the writers realized that there are many
elements, especially the cultural elements, that can be brought to the class for teaching English. So the writers
would like to explain the cultural elements in that novel that can be used in teaching English and what language
skills can be taught by those cultural elements. This research hopefully can be an inspiration to teach English in
the class by using literature especially novel.This is a descriptive research. The data of this research are cultural
elements found in Little House in the Big Woods and the data source is Laura Ingalls Wilder’s novel entitles Little
House in the Big Woods. The technique for collecting data is documentation with content analysis. The cultural
elements found in the novel are geographical condition, tradition, belief, and social values. The results show
that the cultural elements on the novel can be used as material for teaching vocabulary (geographical situation,
tradition), English language skills such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The genre of the text for
teaching the language skills can be in the form of descriptive text (tradition that deals with needle work and belief
that deals with religion and folklore) and procedure text (tradition that deals with how to cook). Besides, it can be
used to teach culture through Cross Culture Understanding with social value materials (speaking manner, eating
manner, and meeting person manner). | id_ID |
