A. Description of research finding
1. Description of preliminary study
The data of this research finding is taken from the field notes, result of observation, interview, and test and questionnaires sheet. Observation and
interview is done before and after implementing CAR. Based on observation conducted by the researcher before implementing
CAR, it was found that students at class 8.2 of Mts Soebono Mantofani were not really interested in learning English. Almost 70 of students especially male
students who didn‟t pay attention fully to the teacher explanation. Some of them were seen talked and joked with their friends, and the others were seen read and
wrote something but not about English material. Only about eight or nine who paid attention full to the teacher. Besides that, when teacher gave them the task

such as asked them to complete students task sheet LKS, they did not complete it by themselves but they cheated to their friends because they did not understand
the material briefly. On the other hand, the writer found that teacher of English
didn‟t lead students into the real situations when teaching English material especially
grammar rules, so it could n‟t attract students‟ interest. The writer saw that teacher
of English lesson used monotonous technique in teaching present perfect, he explained the rules and the usage and asked students to memorize the rules, after
that he asked them to do exercise in LKS. Then, students were seen less motivated in learning English.
Furthermore, when the researcher did the interview with students before implementing CAR, it was known that most student were less motivated in
learning English because English is viewed as difficult subject for them. Also when they were asked what they know about grammar rules especially about
tenses and present perfect tense, most of them did not know and did not understand about the tenses material.
This fact is strengthen by the teacher when the researcher interviewed her, she said that most of students at class 8.2 did not understand the material she
explained, it can be seen from the result of daily examination which are poor and didn‟t pass the KKM score minimal criterion score.
In accordance with that data, the researcher discussed with English Teacher to find the way in solving the problem. Then, the researcher chose the
game find some who game in teaching the present perfect tense. After that, the researcher compiled the procedure of CAR, she planned the lesson plan,
compiled the instrument, and planned the action. When all those preparations were ready to apply, the researcher began to implement CAR which was
