related to the reading text. Then, the students did the exercises accompanied by pictures in series and discussed the answers with class. The last thing done was
checking the students’ exercise score. Finally, the last stage in teaching reading was post-reading. The activities in
this stage were totally same as the activities of post-reading in cycle 1. They were guiding the students to draw conclusion in written form, asking and giving solution for
the students’ problem and closing the teaching and learning process by saying good bye. The students’ conclusion was getting better in cycle 2, they could conclude
precisely about what they had learned whether it was about the narrative text in general or the story of the text they had read. It showed that their comprehension about
the narrative text was getting better in the cycle 2. Further, when the teacher asked the students’ problem, it seemed that the students did not face valuable problem in the
actions of cycle 2.
4.2.2 The Results of Observation in Cycle 2
Classroom observation in cycle 2 was done during the teaching and learning process to know the improvement of students’ active participation after doing
revisions of the weaknesses found in cycle 1. In the first meeting, the observation was done by the English teacher while the observation in the second meeting was done by
the researcher. The indicators observed were also the same, they were 1 identifying the meanings of underlined words in the reading text accompanied by pictures in
series, 2 reading the narrative text accompanied by pictures in series, 3 making notes while the teacher reviewing the material accompanied by pictures in series, 4
doing the reading exercises accompanied by pictures in series, 5 drawing conclusion about the reading text accompanied by pictures in series. The students were
considered as active students when they performed at least four indicators, The research was considered to be successful when 75 of the students actively
participated in the teaching learning process. Furthermore, the result of the classroom observation in cycle 2 was presented in the following.
