The Classroom Action Research using Kurt Lewin’s design consists of four phases within one cycle. Those are planning, acting, observing, and
reflecting.

After finishing the first cycle, it will be probably a new problem or the previous unfinished problems. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to the
second cycle in line with the same concept of the first cycle. Based on the outcome and experiences in the first cycle, the writer will follow the same
phases. Here are the detail explanations about what happens in every phase:
1. Cycle
a. Planning
In this phase, the writer prepares all the needs and requirements for the teaching and learning process in the
classroom. The writer makes the lesson plan and prepares all of the things that will be used in reading using pre questionings. In this
phase, the writer prepares the reading text and the pre questionings
that relate to the text. b.
Acting
The writer as the teacher carries out the planned action in this phase based on the lesson plan that has been made. In
implementation the action, the writer act as English teacher who taught reading by giving pre questioning before student read the
text. The implementation of the action involved three meeting in each cycle.

c. Observing
In observing phase, the writer as the teacher observes the students’ response and achievement during the teaching and
learning process. The teacher observes students’ response about the
lesson. Teacher observes whether there are any significant improvements of students’ score when they are given pre
questioning before they read the text. Sometimes, the writer also asks some students’ opinion about the process of teaching and
learning reading by using pre questioning. When observing, the teacher should notice all of activities in
the classroom. It is done in order to get accurate result in the end of the research.
d. Reflecting
In this phase, the teacher reflects the whole action during the acting and observing phase. And it is necessary to have an
evaluation before starting the next cycle. If there are still some problems, so it needs to continue to the next cycle. By continuing
to the next cycle, it is expected that the unfinished problems yet
can be solved and the goals can be reached. 2.
Cycle 2 a.
Planning
Same as cycle 1, cycle 2 begun from making new lesson plan. It is aimed to change some parts that need to be revised during the
implementation of cycle 1. As the planning phase in Cycle 1, the writer also makes preparation of teaching. The writer re-selects the
texts and teaching aids to motivate students, so that they will get a better understanding of the texts. Evaluation and post test 2 are
prepared t
o see students’ achievements in the end of this cycle.
