The title of this study is therefore "The improvement of reading comprehension ability by using PACA strategy (prediction activity and confirmation activity) of the tenth grade students at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Trimurjo".
Problem Formulation
Like “The third President of the Republic of Indonesia, Jusuf Habibie Bacharuddin or commonly called BJ Habibie, was born in Pare-Pare, in the south. Or "The main Sudirman-Thamrin in Jakarta leads to Merdeka Square, where in the center stands the National Monument (also known as Monas - National Monument) which is the first place where the red-white flag was waved at the Declaration of Independence on August 17 . 1945. Named for its designer, the engineer Gustave Eiffel, the tower was built as the entrance arch to the 1889 World's Fair. The tower is 324 meters high, about 1000 meters.
Or "The word Borobudur itself is of the first written evidence written by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, the Governor-General of the United Kingdom in Java, who gave the name to this temple. Some people considered Atkinson "the man with the rubber face." In fact, he has a really funny face with a unique smile. It is located in a lime hill called tapan, in tabuhan, wareng village. the route is easy. along the way there is beautiful tropical scenery to enjoy - rice fields, coconut palms and birds. east of the cave vendors sell souvenirs. the drink and the food.singer) from the village of gabuhan, who often sings in the cave, does not doubt it.
The tower, named after its designer, engineer Gustave Eiffel, was built as a gateway to the 1889 World's Fair. The tower is 324 meters high, about the same height as an 81-storey building. Upon completion, the S.rrPcrrs.d became the r$/ashington Monument to 4Sf Objectives and Benefits of The Study Based on the pre-test result, none of the students reach the minimum mastery criteria. In addition, the researcher gave the reading text to the groups of the students in the title of B.J.Habibie. In addition, the researcher gave the reading text to the groups of the students in the title of Monas. In addition, the researcher gave a reading text to groups of students entitled Eiffel Tower. In addition, the researcher gave a reading to groups of students in the title of Borobudur. While the architects who contributed to the construction of this temple are according to the story of the hereditary name of Gunadharma. The very word Borobudur is the first written evidence written by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, the British Governor General of Java, who gave the name to this temple. ". In addition, the researcher received 77% of the percentage from the results of posttest II. After administering the medication, the researcher presented post-test II to assess the students' reading comprehension ability. Reading is the name given to a set of actions that are primarily cognitive: lexical processing, spelling and phonology mapping, sentence parsing, conceptual integration, etc. Today we know much more about both than we did ten years ago, but it remains unclear if and how they can be connected to perceptual operations.4 It means that reading is the way of sifting through a collection of lexical items and extracting meaning from them. Reading is a perceptual development, because not only the search for symbols and meaning, but also reading as a lexical process, the gradation between litho and utterance, defining judgment and conceptual assimilation. Writing is the tool we use to record data, improve memory, and express our feelings and thoughts. Reading comprehension is the process of constructing meaning through contact and participation in written language, oral communication and/or visual input. Three components are involved in understanding: the active understanding process; the understander's capacity, knowledge base and motivation; and the difficulty and aspects of the text being read, listened to or watched. The process of understanding requires many simultaneous processes: decoding or moving from sounds and letters to meaning;. Based on the above indicator, the preparation process for the reading comprehension test must take into account the completeness of the reading comprehension indicators. Objectives of Predicting Activity and Confirming Activity (PACA) PACA has some objectives as follows:12 PACA has some objectives as follows:12. This means that using the PACA strategy, students can interpret and understand a reading text by using the advantages described above, namely that students can find initial knowledge, and afterwards students can make predictions based on the initial knowledge provided by the teacher to build by combining prior knowledge. Procedure for Activity Prediction and Activity Confirmation (PACA) The procedure for PACA in reading instruction:15. The teacher asks a general question relevant to the topic of reading and provides initial details. The teacher divides the students into groups and provides a glossary for phrases related to the topic of reading. Based on the word list, the teacher asks the students to determine the general content of the reading text. The teacher documents these predictions (on an overhead or the board) and allows the students to clarify which terms have elicited their predictions. New information is provided by the teacher: this can be through photographs, a video, a story or an essay. Action Hypothesis The students' test score in the post-test 1 was better than the test in the pre-test before that. The researcher also intended to provide an evaluation to measure students' mastery of the given materials. Then the researcher further description of the Eiffel Tower, "The Eiffel Tower is one of the most famous buildings in the world. It could be seen from the result of the post-test II in table 12. From the above table, it could be seen that I was different in the character of the post-test students. He has been listed in the Observer as one of the 50 funniest actors in British comedy. Dutch Governor-General, which now also houses the office of the president and the cabinet. Govemor Generals, which now also houses the office of the President and Cabinet. In the center of the city there is a big hill which is called Dathok mountain.Prior Research
