Abstract

This study is classroom action research which consists of several cycles, namely pre-cycle, cycle I and cycle II. Furthermore, researcher makes the stages of planning, acting, observing and reflecting in each cycle. There are six meetings during the research cycle. The sample of this research is eighth grade D consisting of 21 students. In collecting data, researcher used instruments in the form of observations, tests, and questionnaires. Tests were used in the pre-test and post-test. The average student pre-test score was 50.48 which mean that the ability of some students is still low, because the minimum score standard is 70. In cycle I there was an increase but still did not meet the target, namely 63.81. From cycle II, students’ achievement increased to 83.81. Based on the results, it can be said that STT leads to an improvement in each cycle and an increase in student success. Keywords: Reading Comprehension, Recount Text, Snowball Throwing Technique
