I taught both control group and experimental group. The control group was taught using conventional method with picture and the experimental group was taught
using hand puppet and picture as the media. Both of groups were taught the same materials, but different in media of teaching.
Before I gave the treatment, I gave the pre-test for the both groups. Then, I gave the treatment for them for the several times. After that, I gave post test for both
of the group.
