CHAPTER IV RESEARCH FINDING AND INTERPRETATION
This chapter presents the data description and interpretation of data. They are consist of observation data, interview data, the implementation of teaching
listening using guessing game, and the result itself.
A. Research Finding
1. Data of Observation
Based on the observation, the core of teaching and learning process of listening at the first grade of MTs Annida Al Islamy was taken by the teacher.
Mostly, the teacher asked the students to listen then answer the questions given based on the text that has been read before. Next, the teacher asked the students to
do exercise on the students’ handbook. In doing the exercise, the class was quite noisy, yet the students did the exercise.
The students’ responses were less interest, because they wanted the process is enjoyable. Thus, the class needs variation of
teaching techniques to make the students excited and interested in learning listening. In this case, guessing game is the alternative technique. The writer
chose guessing game because young learner loves to play game while learning. Hence, the students’ interest can be attracted.
2. Data of Interview
a. The Description of Data from Interview with English Teacher
of MTs Annida Al Islamy
According to data of interview with English teacher at the first grade of MTs Annida Al Islamy, the teacher was graduated from English Education
Department at one of the University in Jakarta and he has been teaching at MTs Annida Al Islamy about ten years. He said that the implementation of teaching
and learning English at school is quite nice, because the school facilitates language laboratory, audio speaker, and projector. In teaching listening,
sometimes he used media like CD to watch movie, then the students have to make
the summary from the movie. In his point of view, the students followed the activity. Interesting fact is the students were less interested in listening class.
Thus, the teacher made English club, but only few students joined.
b. The Description of Data from Interview with The First Grade
Students of MTs Annida Al Islamy
Based on the result of interview from eight students at the first grade at MTs Annida Al Islamy that conducted by the writer, it is observably that most of
the students like to learn English, but they thought that it is difficult. The students at the first grade of MTs Annida Al Islamy have problem in
listening class; that is their English teacher taught them conventionally. In the last of interview, the students hope that the teaching and learning process is not only
taught through delivering the textbook materials, but also using game to make them enjoying the teaching and learning process. Therefore, they can improve
their interest and achievement in listening skill.
3. The Implementation of Guessing Game Activities in Teaching
Listening
Based on the data that has been collected, the variation of teaching techniques was needed by the students. It is used not only to make them interested
in learning listening, but also enjoy the class. In this case, guessing game is the alternative technique that the writer chose. It is aimed to create the pleasant
situation in class for practicing listening in fun way. Thus, the students’
achievement can be improved.
In implementation, the pre-test and post-test are arranged to measure the students
’ achievement in listening. The pre-test is used to find out the students’ achievement before implementing the action in cycle one, while the post-test is
used to know the improvement of students’ achievement; it is taken at the end of cycle one and cycle two.
In this research, the writer used two cycles which consist of two meetings for each cycle. Each cycle consists of four phases: planning, acting, observing,
and reflecting. The improvement of the stude nts’ achievement in listening can be
seen from comparing the students’ score of pre-test, post-test I, and post-test II.
This research was held in MTs Annida Al Islamy April 18

a. Cycle One
1. Planning
Planning phase aims to prepare and to design all of the things before going to conduct the research well. In this phase, the writer designs lesson plan for
implementing the acting phase. First, making two lesson plans for two meetings in cycle one. Choosing the material from the
students’ textbook and educational website is the second step. Preparing the media such as power point, speaker,
work sheets, video, and audio is the third step. Creating structured observation sheet to find out the implementation process is the last step of planning phase.
2.
Acting
Acting is the process to do all the plans that has been designed in planning phase. In this phase, the writer roles as an English teacher who does the action by
teaching listening to the students using guessing game while the English teacher observes the writer during the teaching and learning process.
First meeting
In the first meeting, the teacher explained the descriptive text about animal by using power point. To warm up, the students were asked about the text given.
After that, the teacher conducted guessing game by giving video about animal which the students have to watch video carefully; the title is which animal is it.
They were intended to guess correctly the animal showed on the video by identifying and choosing the right picture based on the description given. To
