Abstract

Imperative sentences are included as teaching material for the ninth grade students of Junior High School based on 2013 Curriculum. Unfortunately, the materials provided in the textbooks are very limited and noticeably less authentic. In the present time, relying only on textbooks for teaching language is apparently not enough to make the students experience the use of the real language. This leads to the fact that teachers need to provide alternative resources for teaching their students and a movie can be the solution for its authenticity. This research aimed to discuss the imperative sentences in a movie entitled Harry Potter and The Sorcerer’s Stone based on the force exertion and its pedagogical implication toward the English learning. This research applied qualitative content analysis. The primary data source of this research was Harry Potter and The Sorcerer’s Stone movie. The data were selected based on the limitation and collected through transcription technique. In analyzing the data, the researcher used force exertion theory from Hidemitsu Takahashi with six parameters: desire, capability, power, cost, benefit, and obligation. The finding of this research showed that from the selected imperative sentences uttered by the characters of the movie, there were 7 functions found: order (15), request (10), suggestion (5), warning (2), threat (1), irony (1), and permission (1). From 35 imperative sentences, 33 sentences are prototypical and 2 sentences are less prototypical. The researcher proposed two activities using the movie as the pedagogical implication for teaching imperative sentences in the classroom. The first one is “Let’s Find Them!” activity that can help the students to sharpen their listening skills by watching the movie and finding the imperative sentences. The second is “Learning by Doing” activity with Total Physical Response (TPR) Method that can help the students to train their focus by practicing the imperative sentences uttered by the characters of the movie.
