Scramble Game is a challenging vocabulary games, this game is designed to practice spelling and learn new words. This research aims to identify the effectiveness of using Scramble Task in increasing students’ mastery of English spelling. The researchers use the first class of Junior High School which consisted of 21 students as an experiment, the data was obtained from the classroom after several meetings where the researcher did scrambled task treatment (or rearrangement task/exercise) used in the experiment class. Based on research, the researchers got significant results between pre-test and post-test, where post-test is higher than the pre-test. The results showed that the score for pre-test are 5.71, after being given treatment, there was a change in students’ spelling where this change can be seen in their post test results, which is 7.71. In Addition, the researchers would like to conclude that by using the scrambled task, the student’s English spelling mastery can be increased even more to reduce errors in the writing of the vocabulary in English. The researchers also got positive feedback from the students, where students feel learning English is very nice when using teaching techniques that make them interested in learning through games. Finally, the researchers hope this research can inspire teachers to apply this technique as an exercise in learning English especially in mastering vocabulary and spelling.
