This thesis aimed to explain the effectiveness of using folklore based animation media in teaching english articles. The background of the research was based on my observation that the seventh grade students of MTs Al-Hikmah Sayung Demak have some difficulties in understanding grammar articles and usually get bored in learn grammar especially English articles (a, an, the). So the teacher should use folklore based animation Media a good exercise or way of teaching English articles. This research used an experimental research. In this research, the population was all of seventh grade of MTs Al-Hikmah Sayung Demak in the academic year of 2017/2018. In taking the sample, the writer used a cluster sampling (area sampling).

There were three tests in this research; they were try-out test, pre-test and post-test. The formula that used to analyze the data of pre-test and post-test was t-test. After collecting the data, it was found that the pre-test average score experimental class was 68.33 and control class was 65.00. Meanwhile, the post-test average score of experimental was 81.04 and control class was 72.92. It was obtained that t-test was 3.301 and t-table was 1.679 for alpha (α) 5%. The t-test was higher than t-table (3.301 > 1.679). It means that Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected.
