B. Subject of the study

commit to user 33 Because of the limited time and finance, the research was conducted to the students of Class IX A MTs NW 1 Kembang Kerang. Class IX A consists of 32 students and all of them are boys. Most students 90 are from Kembang Kerang village and 10 are from out of the village. Those who come from out of the village, usually stay in an Islamic boarding house which is near the school. The students come from different social and economics background. Most of them came from poor and low social status families. According to the previous teacher, most students did the task when the teacher asked them although the result of their task was still far from the teachers’ expectation. It can be seen from the result of the pre-test given. Based on the students’ test achievement, this class is categorized into low achievers among the other classes. In this case the researcher chooses Class IX A due to the fact that the problem faced by this class was writing problem. They got many difficulties in writing such as generating ideas, arranging sentences, organizing sentences, having lack of vocabulary, and making coherence. That is why the researcher takes a classroom action research in order to solve the problems.
