I set the class by dividing students into six groups. The number of the students in the class was 32. Four groups consisted of five students, while the
other two groups consisted of six students. It was intended to make students easy to interact each other. Clever students could help unclever students and to
decrease stress when they did activities especially the individual activities. Teacher greeted and checked students’ attendance. Everyone was present that
day. The teacher reviewed the previous lesson, especially their difficulties in
understanding questions, the use of past verb form, punctuation and word order. One studen Rohman said “ betul pak, kami perlu latihan lagi tentang masalah
tersebut supaya kami bisa lebih lancar dalam menulis teks” After that, teacher explained the learning goals through LCD projector. Every student looked
serious listening to the teacher’s explanation. After telling the learning goals, the teacher asked the students if they understood it or not. They understood but they
looked at the screen again to make sure that they knew what they were going to learn that day. Then the teacher distributed the worksheet to the students. The
