the pretest, then the teacher the writer collaborated to prepare the instruments
such as: lesson plan, observation and guidelines, and the posttest

The writer implemented the lesson plan that had been made; that was teaching
narrative text in term of schematic structures and linguistic feature by
using story mapping technique
Observing
The observer observed the teaching learning process in the classroom. It
included the teacher’s performance, the
class situation, and the students’ response. At the cycle 1 the students
were given the posttest 1. Then the writer calculated
the students’ reading score result to find if there were some
students’ improvement scores from the pretest or not.
Reflecting
The teacher and the writer discussed about the result of the implementation in
the action. Next, they made some modification strategies to revise the
founded problems that would occur within carrying out the story mapping
technique in the first cycle.
Planning
After finding out what was the students’ reading score result at cycle 1, The teacher
and the writer collaborate to prepare some instruments such as: the new lesson plan
with some modifications of jigsaw technique, observation and guidelines,
and the posttest.
Reflecting
The teacher and the writer discussed about the result of the implementation of
the modified action. If the Classroom Action Research CAR target could not
be achieved yet, the action would be continued moved to cycle 3, but if the
students’ test result has completed the criterion of the action success, the cycle
would be stopped.
Acting
The writer implemented the new lesson plan; where students needed to be
emphasized on doing longer discussion in analyzing the schematic structures
into story mapping technique and discussing in expert group. They also be
emphasized to answer oral question from the teacher
Observing

performance as a teacher, the class situation, and the students’ response. In
the end of cycle two, the students were given the test posttest 2. Next, the writer
