Teaching English to Young Learners (TEYL) in Indone sia is recognizably unsatisfactory. Students’ English proficiency has n ot met with the demand. What the students learn in Primary School seem not give any help in coping with English in Secondary School. Things to be reflected is the way the students learn or a bit suspect is how the teachers teach. The obs rvable situation is that Indonesian classes especially Young Learners classe s ar not provided with production which is actually the soul of the learning. It is the stage of teaching that require students to produce the target language orally or i n wr tten. When production does not present in class, students are not provided wit h opportunities to use the language which simply leads them to be passive lear ners. Consequently, the target languages are not produced and remaining receptive and they do not use English for communication. The students do not find any cha llenge and do not feel success learning language since they are not requir ed to produce the target language. Grammar and vocabularies tend to be taugh t explicitly. On the other hand production seemed to be neglected. This phenom n interests us to figure out whether student teachers address production in TEYL and what kinds of practices they provide if production takes place. T he student teachers in this research are those who joined Teaching Design for Y oung Learner course. This present research is qualitative research investigat ing whether or not student teachers address production in teaching YL. The par ticipants were 6 student teachers who were teaching EYL as a project of Teac hing Design for Young Learners course. The videotaped were analyzed based on CEFR to see whether production took place in English teaching and what kinds of practices they provided. For triangulation, the student teachers w ere interviewed separately. The findings showed that 3 participants had provided pr oduction in teaching EYL, 2 participants had not provided production yet, and 1 participant provided inappropriate production. The practices they mostly used were oral production, exchanging information between friends.
