E. Teaching Learning Activities and Resources of The Designed Materials.
Since the designed materials were based on the principles of Communicative Language Teaching, the activities in each unit would be done in pair work and
group work. Some of the activities would be done individually. In pair and group work, the students have the opportunity to discuss the materials, answer the
questions, and solve the problems together. While in individual activities, the students have the opportunity to develop themselves in learning English. The aim
of this activity is to measure the progress of each student in learning English. There are four units in the designed materials. The writer divides the
teaching learning activities in three sections in each unit. They are Pre-Activity, Whilst-Activity, and Post-Activity.
1. Pre-Activity The writer writes down the pre-activity step as Get Started. This Pre-
activity phase is intended to introduce the topics to the students. It is also aimed at attracting the students’ attention. In addition, the writer designs pre-
activities in order to avoid the students’ boredom. The activities conducted will be such as identifying pictures, complete the conversation, and listening
activity.
2. Whilst-Activity In this section, the writer divided whilst activity into three main
sections, namely Listen and Speak Up, Get The Idea, Grammar Stage. The listening section consisted of several activities like listen to spoken dialogue
and comprehension questions. The speaking section consisted of several

activities like role play, group discussion, pair work, and presentation. In addition, these sections covered writing skill. It was shown by several
activities which enable students to develop their writing skill. Those are completing the dialogue, comprehension questions, and composing narrative
texts. The designed materials also include language functions materials.
There are several language functions that stated in the in the standard competences and basic competences for the seventh grade students of Junior
High School. They include greeting and leave takings; giving command; apologizing; thanking; asking and giving information; prohibit; and expressing
politeness. Since this study is aimed at designing a set of supplementary
integrated materials, the writer tried to integrate the four skills listening, speaking, reading, and writing in the designed materials. Hence, the first main
activities are mostly in the form of task or analyzing pictures then express their opinion. After that, the students are asked to listen to the teacher
pronunciation then repeat the words or sentences. They would continue the learning activities by learning particular language function. Subsequently, the
students would do the speaking and writing tasks. 3. Post-Activity
Post-activity is aimed at finding out the students’ achievement on the materials they learnt. It is also used to review the materials the students’ have
learnt. They can explore their understanding trough the exercises given.
