twenty minutes to finish their work. They did the group project enthusiastically and seriously. They helped one another to finish it. Time was up and it was time
for the students to present the result of their discussion in front of the class. Then, the researcher called one of the representatives of the group to present the result of
the discussion. They were given 5 minutes to present it. Basically, they had done what the researcher instructed to do well. However, there was still mistake they
made. They forgot to elaborate the materials in making a bowl of fried-noodle.
c. Third meeting
Independent Construction of Text On February 23rd, 2011, at 07:00 am. In this phase, the researcher
expected that the students would be able to construct a procedure text since he had explained it clearly and they had got enough experience of how to construct a
procedure text. Then, the researcher asked them to tell how to make or to do something they liked. He also told them that they were allowed to open their
dictionary. The teacher, however, reminded them not to cheat. They were given twenty minutes to finish their work. The researcher moved around the class while
they were doing the work. He wanted to make sure that nobody cheated. The situation of the class was a bit quiet. Some of the students did not
know what to do since they got confused to choose the title of their procedure text. Once, the researcher asked one of them, “Why did not you start to write yet,
boy?”. He just gave him a smile. Then, he answered “ Saya masih ragu mengenai proses apa yang akan saya tulis, pak “What about you, Hib?” he asked. “Baru
dapat sedikit, pak. “Ya sudah, silahkan dilanjutkan” While he was moving

around, he reminded them that they only had five minutes to go. Some of them had finished it, then, they submitted their works while others were still finishing
their works. Finally, they all finished their works on time. Before ending the class, the researcher asked the students whether the
project given was difficult or not. Most of them said that they could construct a procedure text and picture series helped them much to put the ideas on. While
others felt a bit difficult. They still got difficulties in organizing the words to become a text. The researcher tried to accommodate their difficulties in order to
be able to give them a way out. Then, the researcher advised them to have more practice and reading. “Any more question, class?” the researcher asked “nothing,
sir” one student said. Ok then, “if there is no more question”, the researcher said good bye, he also reminded them to study harder and to do more exercises.
