CHAPTER V CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION
B. Recommendations
The researcher would like to provide some recommendations based on the results of this research and the discussion in the previous chapter.
1. For the English Teacher
a) Teachers must make an effort to employ engaging strategies. One option for teaching reading, particularly narrative material, is to employ the REAP strategy.
The strategy teaches students that they do not have to know every word in a text in order to read it, and it further improves their capacity for making notes on key ideas that they read.
b) Teachers must be selective and creative when using strategies in the classroom. The right strategies will make reading activities in the classroom more enjoyable for both teachers and students. This means that it can help students foster motivation and collaboration by allowing them to express their own opinions and perspectives on the text, and to discuss them with their peers or teachers.

c) Teachers should be aware of the resources provided to their students.
Students' interest in reading and comprehending the text can increase when the text has the appropriate information.
2. For the students
a) Paying close attention to the teacher's explanation of the lesson and taking part in the REAP strategy's teaching of narrative text. As a consequence, students can by themselves to comprehend the teacher's information without difficulty, comprehending not just specific phrases but also the entirety of the text. It is possible for improving students' interpersonal the ability to work togethe.
b) Students should be very motivated to comprehend narrative texts and consistently apply what they learn from their teachers.
3. For other researchers
The REAP strategy is an effective method for teaching reading comprehension, but it needs more research to explore its potential and limitations.
Future researchers could:
a) Test the long-term effects of the REAP strategy on students’ reading skills.
b) Compare the REAP strategy with other reading strategies for different texts and purposes.
c) Investigate the factors that affect the implementation and success of the REAP strategy in the classroom.
