motivation before conducting the research and after conducting the result. There are two kinds of test in this research, namely post-test and pre-test. Pre-test is a
test was give b efore the implementation of this research. It is to measure students’
motivation in reading. Post-test is a test which given after the implementation of this research.
The result the mean score in post-test of cycle 2 is 78.57. It shows the best achievement, because they had score improvement. They proved the good

concluded that the research is success because the perscentage of students’ mean
score of post-test 2 could pass the criterion of research success.
6. Technique of the Data Analysis
In this research, the writer uses qualitative data, because the observation during interview and teaching learning process do before and after action
research. In analyzing qualitative data, the writer got the average of student’s motivation score per action in one cycle. It used measure how well the student
