In the third meeting there were some students who did not attend the class so they missed the meeting and made the
result of the post-test 1 was low. There were some students who could not differentiate in
using the second type of conditional and the third type of conditional. The mistake often happened when they
produced the main clause. For example, “if they had not
come to the class, they would not know about the material
of the lesson on that day”. They dismissed the main clause, the right one would be
“ if the had not come to the class,
they would not have known about the material of the
lesson on that day”. The students still seemed confused in using the right main clause in the third conditional
sentence.It became one of the reason why the cycle should continue to the cycle 2.
They needed more practice and exercise in order to make the students could use the conditional sentence in type III
interactively by indicating that they could use it automatically.
The result of the observation sheet at the first cycle was
Enough and Goodfor each meeting, the teacher and the
writer agreed that the students could improve their ability
into Good or Very Good by doing the next cycle into cycle
two. Based on the reflecting phase above, there must be an effort to
continue the next cycle into cycle 2.
3. Findings in Cycle 2
a Planning
In this phase, at the cycle 2, the writer revised the lesson planning with some innovative activities which could make the lesson became
interactive. The lesson plan also corrected by the teacher, in order to make the activities run appropriately. The writer provided some interesting
media in teaching in order to make the students became more enthusiastic and interactive.The writer also prepared the observational sheet to the
teacher as an observer to the check the writer‟s performance in delivering the material of the lesson. Post-test 2 also designed in this phase, in order
to compare the improvement of students‟ understanding in using conditional sentence type III from the post-test 1 in cycle 1 to the post-test
2 in cycle 2.
b Acting
In the second phase of acting, at the fourth meeting on Monday, 3
rd
October 2016, the writer gave a song which contained the material about conditional sentence in type III. The students were asked to fill the blank
answer with an appropriate answer based on the song that they were listened. The writer played the song twice, and the students had to fill the
blank. After that, back to the team, the students had to underline the type of conditional sentence. They got a chance to ask another team to change
the underline sentence into conditional sentence type III. They must anwer directly, another groups who did not get the turn yet, were responsible to
give their comment, whether they are agree, or disagree by using some emoticons that were prepared by the writer.
Next , on Thursday, 6
th
October 2016, the meeting was continued to the next activities. On that day, the writer had prepared a short story of
the “Last Leaf”. She made the story not in a good chronological order and put in an envelope. The students in a team had to arrange the story into a
good paragraph and they must underline the sentence of conditional. After that, they showed their work in the big paper which was hang on the wall.
Every group corrected to each other. They presented the corrected sentence and also the mistake which was made by another group. In this
condition, every people got a chance to speak and deliver their idea, comment, or thought.
The sixth meeting was held on Monday, 10
th
October 2016. In this session, the writer gave a lot of sentences which was colorful, the color
described the type of conditional sentence. The students had to match each color with the right conditional sentence. They did it in a limited time, so
they looked so serious to do this kind of activity. The last meeting was held on Thursday, 13
th
October 2016. On that occasion, the writer gave a printed material of the theory about conditional
sentence. So since the first time, the writer did not give a kind of pattern or formula about conditional sentence, they learned by doing. They
concluded by themselves. At the last session, the writer delivered the theory through a summary of conditional sentence. It was done in order to
strengthen their understanding about conditional sentence in type III. The last activity was post-test 2 for students. The aim was to measure and saw
the improvement of students‟ ability in using conditional sentence type III.
c Observing
The result of observation in this phase, described about the learning process during the lesson, student‟s interest in learning, and also
the improvement which appeared in this cycle. For the fourth meeting, the students looked so enthusiastic and they did not feel sleepy like the first
meeting. It could be seen from their participation in the class, for the first time it was so hard for them to concentrate in learning English, especially
about grammar in conditional sentence because they felt exhausted after doing a psychical education lesson sport in the mid-afternoon, now the
students looked so ready when they learned. They felt eager to know about what would be the next activities on that day. What they would going to
do on that day. Also, there were no students who seemed busy with their gadget. They focused on the learning process.
In the fourth meeting, the students seemed enjoying the learning activity on that day because the writer provided a song which contained of
the material about conditional sentence type III. Some students looked so happy while they were listening a song. The joy gave a stimulation for the
students in completing the part of the song precisely. After, they had finished the listening session, all of the students want to take a marker to
write down their own answer in a whiteboard. Eventhough not all of the answers were actually right, they were brave to try in answering the
questions again. Some various media could attract
the students‟ attention in learning. For example, in a team work, every team got a turn to ask the
other team to change the part of the song conditional sentece into the third type of conditional sentence. In that occasion, all of the group were
contributing in expressing their comment or ideas through some emoticons of agreement or disagreement that was provided by the writer. There were
no students who were quiet when they produced their own conditional sentence through emoticons.When there was a student who delivered a
conditional sentence in type III, another student gave a kind of agreement or disagreement through emoticons which were provided by the writer.
The reaction from another students who paid attention on her were incredible because all of the students want to gave their comment,
expression, ideas , or thought creatively. For the fifth meeting, the students also looked so curious to know
about the story of “The Last Leaf” overall, because the story were not still in a good chronological order, they tried to find the story and found the
conditional sentence of type III on that story. Eventhough there was three students who made a mistake in corre
cting other‟s work, they asked about an explanation of their mistake from the teacher. In order to make them
realize about the correct conditional sentence. Next, for the the sixth meeting. The students were more expert than
before. It could be seen from their participation in matching the right
conditional sentence under the limited time. They did it automatically without reciting the formula or pattern. The color also helped them in
learning about conditional sentence. The seventh meeting was the time for delivering the theory in a
printed material. It helped them in strengthening their understanding in using conditional sentence type III. At this occasion, the students made
their own conclucion about what is conditional sentence, the function, and also the type. They wrote their own notes in their book without any
instruction from the teacher. They just wrote the material based on their understanding and their own conclusion.
For the last meeting, the students did a kind of post-test seriously. They were well-prepared, it was shown from their appearence in doing the
test. They did it without any confusion in asking the other friend for cheating. The teacher, as an observer also agree that the learning process
ran very well, interesting, and absolutely interactive. The teacher told that the writer could handle and solve the problems well, because the students
now can diffentiate each type of conditional sentence, they also could produce the third type of conditional sentence automatically. From the
result of the post-test the students could achieve the KKM 75 overall. The average of the students was 86,15, whereas for the post test-1 was
74,87.The point was increased into 11,28 86,15 - 74,87. The observation sheet was also conducted for the second cycle.
