AU - Meteb, Suaad Abdulameer AB - The aim of this study is to discover the impact of using songs on Iraqi EFL intermediate students’ vocabulary performance. The sample of the present study consists of sixty students chosen from 3rd grade students at Fatima Al-Zehraa Secondary school for girls in Al-Diwanyia. The students are divided into two groups,30 students for control group and 30 students for the experimental group. To achieve the aim of this study, the researcher designed a pre-posttest of vocabulary. Before the experiment, a pretest in vocabulary is given to both groups. The researcher selected 8 songs to teach students vocabulary through them. The experimental group has been taught vocabulary within the selected songs, whereas the control group has been taught according to traditional instruction. At the end of the experiment which has lasted for six weeks, the same pre-posttest in vocabulary is given to both groups. From the result which has been statistically analyzed, the researcher concludes that the experimental group outperformed the control group. This results reflected the positive effect of the impact of using songs as a good way to teach vocabulary to the intermediate school student. The findings suggested that songs are not merely an entertaining tool, but they can also be utilized as a pedagogic material particularly when it comes to teaching vocabulary.
