acquired before learning using the design of the materials. In order to obtain those kinds of data, the writer conducted need analysis from the students’ and teachers’
point of view by distributing the questionnaires.

This step is aimed to determine the goal of the design of the materials based on the students’ needs. Stating the Competency Standards and the Basic
Competences were the starting points in designing the materials. In this study, the term competency standard was used rather than the term goal because in the
School-Based Curriculum SBC, competency standard was used to mention the performances that students obtain as the end of teaching learning process.

was used instead of general purposes. Basic competence stated was to guide the teacher about the minimum competencies from the competency standard that must
be done or performed by the students. It is also to help the teacher in deciding the activities during the lesson. The topics used in the design of the materials were
taken from the basic competences stated in SBC.
