Based on the observation, the researcher got some fact dealing with the actions of the third cycle. Firstly, the researcher found that the students were very enthusiastic in learning
writing using Guided Composition. Most of the students said that Guided Composition helped them in writing especially in generating ideas more freely. Through Guided Compositions, they
could express not only what they had to follow the given clues, in form of the first and the last sentences, but also things which they could expand freely to give more detail information. With
Guided Composition they could write story more systematically and more freely. Secondly, the researcher also found out that through Guided Composition, the students
were actively asking and discussing to improvise their story and to enlarge their vocabulary that they found based on their own experience. Their participation in learning was increased a lot
.This fact means that Guided Composition could effectively increase the students u iosit and
creativity in expressing their ideas. Within cycle 3, the number of the students who wrote independently without depending too much on
thei f ie ds helps i eased, too.
Thirdly, th e stude ts competence in writing improved especially in developing the
content and organizing the ideas of the text as well as the grammar when the researcher used Guided Composition in teaching writing. But The students score means decreased because the
aspect vocabulary and mechanical convention in writing decreased.. Among the five writing traits used fo e aluati g the stude ts o k, the e ha i ade the ost decreasing, then, followed
cxxx by vocabulary while the content, the organization of ideas, and the grammar made the little
progress.. Grammatically most of the sentences they made were correct and better compared to those in cycle 1 and cycle 2, because they could trace the correct grammar through self
correction which had been done since in the first cycle.. Even though there was improvement in content, organization of the ideas, and the
grammar, there were, however, some points which needed further treatment in order to reach maximum result.
a Some students still could not write the sentences effectively. There were some simple
sentences which had similar ideas but they did not how to identify some simple sentences which had similar ideas and how to combine them into one effective sentence.
b Some students made more mistakes on punctuation and capitalization.
c The students had problem in using new vocabulary.
Due to these findings, the result of the writing test given after cycle 3 was satisfying although there were some problems that had to be solved. The researcher decided to proceed
this research to cycle 4 to give opportunity to the students to be able to overcome the problems in cycle three and to help them write more freely and effectively.
