Abstract: It is crucial to highlight the vocabulary-learning problems faced by students, propose strategies that enhance their understanding of the target vocabulary, and offer opportunities for acquiring new words (Afzal, 2019). The researcher implemented an instructional material called Share a Cup of Words to help Grade 9 students enhance and retain their vocabulary skills through a Classroom-based Research design. Forty-one students were selected through purposive sampling during the 2023-2024 academic year in one of the public schools in Ozamiz City. The study employed both qualitative and quantitative methods, including a researcher-designed test and interviews, for data collection. Statistical analysis was conducted using Minitab and HyperResearch software, utilizing tools such as mean, standard deviation,ttest, and thematic analysis to provide a comprehensive understanding of the findings. The study aimed to address the following objectives:to determine the learners’ performance level before using Share a Cup of Words,to assess their performance level after using it,to identify signifi cant improvements in their performance, and to explore other observed improvements following its use. The findings revealed an outstanding improvement in the learners’ overall performance after integrating Share a Cup of Words into the vocabulary earning process. Therefore, Share a Cup of Words is an effective tool for enhancing learners’ vocabulary skills. Furthermore, it is recommended to integrate Share a Cup of Words with other subjects to create a more interdisciplinary approach to vocabulary learning.
