significant improved, but it could not achieve the target yet of success CAR crite
rion that is 75 or at least 32 students from the students’ percentage which pass the Minimum Mastery Criterion-Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal KKM.
Because that, the researcher continued to conduct this CAR in the next cycle. The last is the result of the mean score in the post-test II in cycle 2 is
75.95. It means that the students’ improvement score is 3.21 75.95 – 72.74 from the post-test I
72.74 or 35.75 students’ improvement in the score percentage from the pre test. In the percentage of students who pass the Minimum Mastery
Criterion-Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal KKM in the post-test II shows that there is 90.48. It means that there are thirty eight students who pass the Minimum
Mastery Criterion-Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal KKM and only four students are still below the Minimum Mastery Criterion-Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal KKM.
This class percentage shows some improvements 90.48 from the pre-test 23.81 and post-test I 71.43 in the class percentage. The post-test II of cycle
2 has fulfilled the target of Classroom Action Research CAR because there is above 75 of students who pass the Minimum Mastery Criterion-Kriteria
Ketuntasan Minimal KKM. From the interpretation of the data above, it shows that using Substitution Drills can deve
lop students’ understanding of the simple present tense, and finally it can be said that the Classroom Action Research
CAR is success and the researcher ends the cycle.
