writing hortatory exposition text. Therefore they can create a good hortatory exposition with appropriate ideas related to their arguments.
1.10 Reasons for Choosing the Topic
Teaching writing is not an easy case. I have proved it when I was doing my duty as a student teacher in the real school. Whenever I asked the students to write a
certain genre, they looked confused because they did not know what they should write and how to write. This kind of condition also influenced their results. Their
writing were not good enough, even I did not understand what they meant. Writing may be not the most difficult language skill, but realizing the
lacks of students‟ writing ability makes me really want to show another way in teaching writing. Therefore I choose the title because of some reasons:
1 to give the teachers appropriate strategy in teaching writing, especially in
teaching hortatory exposition text, which can be accepted by the students in order to apply the material into their own writing;
2 to give the students motivation in exploring their ideas, so they are
willing and able to write hortatory exposition text easily and properly; 3
to solve the students‟ difficulty in exploring their ideas to make a good hortatory exposition text;
4 to make the students enjoy the teaching learning activities in the
classroom through “One Stay Three Stray strategy” because in my opinion teaching learning activities are not only about transferring
knowledge, but also bringing happiness.

orking hypothesis of this study is that “One Stay Three Stray strategy is significant to improve students‟ ability in writing hortatory
exposition text.” The second hypothesis is the null hypothesis Ho. The null hypothesis of
this study is “One Stay Three Stray strategy is not significant to improve students‟ ability in writing hortatory exposition text.”
