Then, I taught how to write narrative text using series of pictures as media. The series of pictures which were used were about Alice in the Wonderland and
Sleeping Beauty. I taught how to write narrative text through the same steps like in the experimental group, but with different teaching media.
Then, I administered the story writing composition posttest with the same topic as the story writing composition pretest after I gave the treatments to the
students of the control group. There were 37 students joining the posttest. They were asked to write a narrative text in 45 minutes about Cinderella. They should
write a narrative text about Cinderella story with minimum word length of the story is 250 words. Some keywords were also provided to help them writing
narrative text. Then, the writer scored the posttest using the Boardman and Frydenberg’s Essay Evaluation. Like in the pretests, there were five elements of
good writing which were scored. They were content or ideas, organization, grammar or structure, word choice, and mechanics. The score of the posttest was
compared with the score of the posttest.
