4.2.3 Observing
The next step after having the acting stage was observing the result and looking back to field note obtained from the collaborator. In the first cycle I taught about the
feature of recount text, in terms of the schematic features and also the language features. The collaborator observed the students and teacher‟s my activities and
jotted down the result into the observation sheets. The result of the observation was elaborated here.

For the observation of the teaching learning activities, the collaborator noticed some points regarding to my way in conducting the teaching learning process are
elaborated as the following:
1 The teacher was good at opening the lesson and motivating the students. 2 The teacher was good also in explaining the material to the students.
3 The teacher had a very loud but a little bit unclear voice and intonation that sometimes confusing the students.
4 The teacher was not ignorant to the students by giving the students chances to actively engage in the lesson.
5 The teacher often neglected the students in the group discussion which created a little noise in the classroom.
6 The teacher tried to create the English speaking atmosphere in the classroom by not using too many „Bahasa Indonesia‟ in delivering the lesson.
7 The teacher was good at leading the discussion about preserving culture integrated with the model recount text.
8 The teacher was good at stimulating students‟ awareness of culture by giving
some reflective cases. Besides analyzing the observation list of teacher and students, the collaborator
and I also considered the result of the first score of writing test cycle 1 test. It was found out that the result was not yet satisfying. For the analysis of the cycle 1 test can
be seen in the further explanation.
