For the students or groups, work that gets high scores will be given an appreciation. The teacher announces the best team at the meeting based on the level of development in the test and gives a certificate to the best team. Each member of the group (student) must be individually responsible for the material being handled in a collaborative group. 22.
Before giving the material, the teacher must prepare the worksheet and the answer sheet which the student will learn in the group.
Action Hypothesis
The task of the group members is to master the material given by the teacher and help other group mates to understand it. Students are given a worksheet that can be used to practice the skill they are taught to assess themselves. This research is of the action research type in the classroom, and it was carried out in the tenth grade of SMKN 1 Pekalongan in the first semester, which is located at Jl.
The researcher chose this class because his class has the lowest in reading comprehension as proven by the pre-survey result.
Action Plan
It means that classroom action research is a form of research that enables practitioners everywhere to investigate and evaluate their own classroom work. The purpose of Classroom Action Research is to solve any problem and practice to enhance teachers' professional development activities. Action research in the classroom consists of sequences of four activities that are carried out in a cycle, they are: (a) planning, (b) action, (c) observation and (d) reflection.

In this step, the researcher observes the learning process through format observation. The researcher analyzes and discusses the result of observation during the teaching-learning process, such as the weakness and strength of the action in this step. The researcher used the data from the evaluation to make improvements for the second cycle, the researcher decides that the next cycle will focus on the weakness in the first cycle.
In this cycle, what the researcher does is the same as in the first cycle, if the goal is to repeat the success of the previous cycle or to strengthen the result of the first cycle. But in general, what the researcher does in the second cycle has some additions to improve the result of the first cycle and improve it. The researcher examines and reflects on the students' activities and the teachers' performance, whether it is positive or negative, whether the second cycle is enough or whether the next cycle is needed for the best result.
The pre-test will be given at the first meeting before the treatments are given in order to know the ability of the students before doing the action research. Documentation as a method used to obtain information from written language or documentation, for example, book, magazine, rule, note, etc.30 The researcher uses this method to obtain the data for the tenth grades of SMK N 1 Pekalongan. To investigate whether there is an impact of the Student Team Achievement Division (STAD) method on students' reading comprehension, the researcher takes the average pre-test and post-test score in cycle 1 and cycle 2.
Moreover, to know the result, the researcher would compare the mean score between pretest and posttest for each cycle. In order to determine whether the Student Group Achievement Sharing (STAD) method could be used to improve students' reading comprehension, the researcher determined a performance indicator for this research.

General Description of Research Data
- Score Verbal of Cycle I
This research administered a pre-treatment pre-test to determine how far students were with reading comprehension on July 29, 2016 at 8:30-10. Frequency distribution of student scores in students with no pre-test values Presentation of % interpretation. In this meeting, the students expected the teacher to give them specific information about the narrative text.
In the first and second meeting, the teacher would explain narrative text and the STAD method. Based on the evaluation, the students were expected to meet the minimum mastery criteria (76). Therefore, in the next cycle, the researcher will motivate the students more to get a better score in the pre-test and post-test.
Then the researcher asked the students to tell about the topic of CITY based on their opinion. In the second meeting, the researcher explained the STAD method before the students gave a test. The table above showed that the result of the post-test can meet the minimum mastery criteria (MMC) where there are 92% of students (24) who were successful and only 8% (2 students) who were not successful the students (26) who was success.
Based on the result of the first meeting, it can be seen that most students have no difficulty answering the assignment and the test. In the second cycle, the students were also more active in completing the assignment and test than before.
Interpretation
It happened that the teacher and the researcher reviewed and improved the teaching and learning process in cycle I. Based on the table above, it can be seen that the students Pretest highest score was 80 and Posttest 90. Comparison of Pretest, Posttest I and Posttest II Pretest Posttest 1 Posttest II.
The table above shows that the average score of the student's reading comprehension has increased.
DISCUSSION
In this case, the student of SMK N 1 Pekalongan has difficulty answering the question a text in reading comprehension. So the researcher must be more creative to make the students more active in the learning process, especially in reading. This was the reason why the researcher chose STAD a's method to improve students' reading comprehension, because this method seems to be good in the learning process.
STAD included some steps that made the student more active in learning together with other students. Furthermore, the researcher used STAD contained some steps to improve the student's reading comprehension. The researcher explained the narrative text to be the leader of each group and asked them to share what they got in each group.
In the final learning process, the student answers the multiple choice question about narrative text. After Cycle 1 and Cycle II, the students' reading comprehension improved because the researcher used STAD as a method. In this chapter, some conclusions are drawn based on the findings and discussion in the previous chapter and made possible by some suggestions.
Conclusion
That result is evidenced by students' higher scores on the post-test. While the average in post-test 1 was 71.15 and post-test 2 was 83.46 and the result of analysis of the theory, the students could apply it in daily activities.
Suggestion
From the results of the study, it is known that the use of the STAD method can improve the reading comprehension, interest and motivation of students. With this, it is expected that the result of the study can be used by the English teacher as a suitable method in teaching reading to improve students' reading comprehension. Based on the explanation, the writer would like to suggest to the other researcher, the result of the study will be used as an additional reference for further research with the different samples and cases.
