85 researcher could deliver the materials while the students could follow the
practices of easily and felt enjoy in the teaching learning process. The results indicated that the students‘ speaking skills were improved than
before. Therefore, the researcher, the collaborator and the observer decided not to continue the cycle, as the improvements were considered

2. The Result of the Pre-Test, Post-Test 1 and Post-Test 2
The researcher conducted pre-test and post-test to get a broader picture of the students‘ speaking skill. The pre-test was given at the beginning of the
research. The students were asked to a dialog in front of the class in in a pair. The topic was Expressing Anger The detailed of the pre-test tasks in the
handouts, Appendix B. Their performances were scored into four categories including fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary and accuracy. Each of the
categories was labeled 1 to 10. The detailed scoring rubric of the assessment can be seen on the Appendix E. Having collecting data of pre-test, the scores
were processed with Microsoft Excel Program. It was done to see the mean score of the pre-test. The table below showed the mean score of the pre-test.

cycle was 5.94. Then the mean score of pronunciation aspect in the first cycle was 5.98 and 6.01 for the vocabulary aspect. The mean score of the accuracy
aspect was 5.87.
Then, the students were given a test at the second meeting or the last of the Cycle 1. Their performances were used as the Post-Test 1. Both the
researcher and the collaborator gave scores for their performances. The mean score of the students‘ fluency aspect was 6.9, then for the pronunciation
aspect was 6.96, and the mean score of the vocabulary aspect was 6.88 and the last was 6.98 for the accuracy aspect. The result of the Post-Test 1 was on
the table below. Table 11: The Mean Score of the Post-Test 1
