Reflecting the Actions Research Procedures

However, because there was no data on the students’ writing, the researcher held a pre-test to see the students’ ability in writing narrative texts on March 16 th 2013. She asked them to write a famous narrative text entitles “Robin Hood”. This narrative text chooses because most of the students ever read the story or watched the movie, so that they have background knowledge about the story. The paragraphs consist of orientation, complication and resolution. The result was most of the students could not produce a well-organized text. When they were assigned to write a composition, they found hard to decide what they should write. As the result, they needed much time to finish their writing. In reference to the results of the classroom observations, interviews,and also the students’ writing, the researcher found the field problems faced by students in learning writing, there were several problems related to the organization. Most students were confused of what they should write. It seemed that the students needed to be taught how to organize the text and to develop their ideas in a good order based on the generic structure of the narrative texts. From the identification above, there were some problems occurring during the writing class. The following table presents the identified problems.

Those problems were formulated as follows: 1 The students had low motivation in learning writing 2 The students could not develop the idea of the paragraph appropriately The next step was analyzing the problems. Based on the analysis, the problems were caused by several factors as follows: 1.
