There were 37 students joining the posttest. They were asked to write a narrative text in 45 minutes about Cinderella. They should write a narrative text about
Cinderella story with minimum word length of the story is 250 words. Some keywords were also provided to help them writing narrative texts. Then, I scored
the posttest using the the Boardman and Frydenberg’s Essay Evaluation. Like in the pretests, there were five elements of good writing which were scored. They
were content or ideas, organization, grammar or structure, word choice, and mechanics. The score of the posttest was compared with the score of the pretest.
3.6.2 Control
Class
I did not use video clips as media to teach writing narrative texts to the students of the control class. The control class used series of pictures as media which were
usually used by the English teacher to teach writing narrative texts. Like the experimental group, before I taught the students how to write narrative texts
correctly, I asked the students to do story writing composition pretest. The students were asked to write a narrative text in 45 minutes about Cinderella. They
should write a narrative text about Cinderella story with minimum word length of the story is 250 words. Some keywords were also provided to help them writing
the narrative text. After conducting the pretest, I scored the pretest using the Boardman and
Frydenberg’s Essay Evaluation. There were five elements of good writing which were scored. They were content or ideas, organization, grammar or structure,
word choice, and mechanics.

Then, I taught how to write narrative text using series of pictures as media. The series of pictures which were used were about Alice in the Wonderland and
Sleeping Beauty. I taught how to write narrative text through the same steps like in the experimental group, but with different teaching media.
Then, I administered the story writing composition posttest with the same topic as the story writing composition pretest after I gave the treatments to the
students of the control group. There were 37 students joining the posttest. They were asked to write a narrative text in 45 minutes about Cinderella. They should
write a narrative text about Cinderella story with minimum word length of the story is 250 words. Some keywords were also provided to help them writing
narrative text. Then, the writer scored the posttest using the Boardman and Frydenberg’s Essay Evaluation. Like in the pretests, there were five elements of
good writing which were scored. They were content or ideas, organization, grammar or structure, word choice, and mechanics. The score of the posttest was
compared with the score of the posttest.
