INTRODUCTION
Language plays a very important role in daily life because it is a mean of communication.It functions not only as a means of interaction, but also as a means of maintaining social relationship, academically or non-academically, Available online at: jurnal.uin-antasari.ac.id/index.php/letP a g e | 41 Fadilah Umi Maisyaroh LET: Linguistics, Literature and Language Teaching Journal Vol.7 No.1 2017 among the community members of language users.Therefore, language and society are inseparable -there is no language without society of its user.In any society where there is law and order, the development of the citizens who can contribute to the overall development of that society and into the larger society cannot be overemphasized.Schooling is regarded as more than cultivating the mind and the body.Even though other socializing agents are at work in developing the character of the child, the school is also capable of developing character, pro-social behaviors, and civic competences (DeRouche et al. 2001).In their words: School is a place where students have the opportunity to witness and practice civility, caring, and compassion and to develop together as a community of learners and can help develop both positive personal values and civic competences.The two major purposes of school are cognitiveacademic development and character education.Together they prepare students for the world of work, for lifelong learning, and for citizenship (DeRouche and Williams 2001: 8).
The above statement recognizes the school as an integral part of the society which can also help to mould the character of the pupils.However, the school alone cannot achieve the objective of teaching character.It is the shared duty of the families, the faith communities, youth organizations, business, government, the media and all citizens.The family is regarded as the first school of virtues.It lays down the moral foundation on which other social institutions can build, including the school (Jwied andRizzo 2004, Bohlin 2005).
Character education, variously known as values education, moral education, transmission of cultural values, and socialization is regarded to have been around for centuries.Farris (2001) states that historically, many leaders such as Aristotle, Quintilian, Muhammad, Martin Luther, Johann Herbart, Horace Mann and John Dewey have advocated for character education in schools.To some educators, character education helps learners to acquire the norms of the society.Burnett (2000) in Farris (2001)  behavior or not in a given setting.Linked to acquisition of norms of the environment is emotional intelligence or the ability to understand other people and manage own emotions which enable children with high emotional intelligence to be better learners, have better ego, have fewer behavior problems, feel better about themselves, and are better conflict managers.

Definition of Character Building
The Action Plant of Character Building Implementation (2010) stated that Character Building is a value lesson, it is a moral lesson which aims is to elaborate the ability of the learners to produce decisions about good or bad, keeping the good values and reflect the values on the daily activities totally.Thus, Character Building Education is not only about how to teach the right or wrong but it also about how to create a good-moral habits among the learners so that they can be cognitively able to comprehend which thing is right and which one is wrong.Further, the learners should also able to differentiate good values affectively to be applied into set of actions truly (psychomotor).
In other words, we can say that a good character building must involve not only moral knowing aspect but also loving good (moral feeling), and moral action.
Character Building Education emphasizes on the continual habits in practicality or in any activities (Pedoman Pelaksanaan Pendidikan Karakter, Puskurbuk,Januari

Definition of Role Play
Wikipedia: Role-playing refers to the changing of one's behavior to assume a role, either unconsciously to fill a social role, or consciously to act out an adopted role.
While the Oxford English Dictionary defines role-playing as "the changing of one's behavior to fulfill a social role", the term is used more loosely in four senses: a.To refer to the playing of roles generally such as in a theatre, or educational setting; b.To refer to taking a role of an existing character or person and acting it out with a partner taking someone else's role, often involving different genres of practice; c.To refer to a wide range of games including role-playing video game, play-by-mail games and more; d.To refer specifically to role-playing games.Terrence Hoffmann, ((1999) "The meanings of competency", Journal of European Industrial Training, Vol.23 Iss: 6, pp.275 -286) he said that the term "competency" has not been clearly defined in the literature.Two main meanings of the term have been identified, one referring to the outputs, or results of training that is, competent performance.The other definition referring to the inputs, or underlying attributes, required of a person to achieve competent performance.Each definition has been used to describe both individual and organizational competencies.A typology of the meanings of competency has been developed to show that the term has several meanings depending on the purpose for which it is used.The implications developed in this paper are directed toward reducing the confusion over the meaning of the term competency.

Definition of Standards of Competency
Standard of Competency is a guideline or basic standard for the certain skill of the students should be achieved after they join the learning process of a certain subject.The materials scope of every standard of competence are broadly provided to be linked to the philosophy concept of certain subjects.Thus, the basic competence of English is also means a competence which should be achieved by the students as the results of learning English well.(http://aadesanjaya.blogspot.com/2011/01/standar-kompetensi-matapelajaran.html:Makalah Pendidikan Terbaru 2011.Standar Kompetensi Mata Pelajaran Bahasa Inggris).Wells (1987) in his Language Learning Basic Principle underlined that The Literacy Level is concerned with performative, functional, informational, and epistemic.On the performative level, The Learners are able to read, to write, to listen, and to speak using any symbols provided.Meanwhile, on the functional level the language learners are able to use the language to fulfill their daily needs such as newspaper reading, manuals or directions.Then, The Informational Stage shows that the language learners are able to have science accesses through their language competence possessed.The Fourth level is Epistemic.Here, the language learners are able to express or produce scientific report in the target language.

REFLECTION
This technique is very effective and efficient to learn or memorize the content of competency standards three for social graders.It does not only have a clear purpose but also helps low-level, poor motivated students to learn, to speak and to produce words related to their daily life easily without being afraid of making mistakes.Through this activity, the teacher facilitates the students to be active in speaking.Further, the teacher itself can do two kinds of assessments that are Affective and Psychomotor to get the learners' mark.I have applied this strategy to my twelve social graders and I found that my students became more active and enjoy in learning English.They were not being under pressure while they were studying competency standards three, which is on the same content with competency standards one, to face the National Final Examination.Well, at least we have tried an interesting way to solve that frightening examination.

CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
Based on the reflection, it is quite clear that the speaking skill of the students can be elaborated in some ways using interesting technique applicable to the students and teaching learning process.In this matter, through doing Role Play and Students' Team Achievement Division (STAD) technique, a teacher can possess a multi-task teaching-learning goal.They are such as the students can have happy feeling-learning process, their ability in speaking will be more fluent, the vocabulary building of the students will be elaborated, and the learners will also comprehend that character building values are also found in English Transactional and Interpersonal relationship.Then, the value will be applied in their daily activity.That is why English teachers nowadays should be more creative in teaching-learning process.
are some existing values which are assumed as the basic value of character building creation, such as: be faith to God, Cleanliness, Tidiness, Comfortness, and Politeness.In accordance with the implementation of character building in learning process, there are eighteen values which source are from Religion, Pancasila, Culture, and the goal of Our National Education.They are: Religious, Honest, Toleration, Discipline, Hard working, Creative, Independent, Democratic, Curioucity, Nationality, Patriotism, Achievement of appreciation, Friendly/Communicative, Peace loving, Having good habit of reading, Environmental care, Social Care, Responsible (Pusat Kurikulum.P a g e | 43 Fadilah Umi Maisyaroh LET: Linguistics, Literature and Language Teaching Journal Vol.7 No.1 2017 Pengembangan dan Pendidikan Budaya dan Karakter Bangsa: Pedoman Sekolah.2009:9-10).
