Abstract

The problems experienced by the students at State Senior High School 2 BANGKO-Bagansiapiapi in reading comprehension really needed the correct solution. In this case, the teacher was expected to find a good strategy to improve the students’ reading comprehension by applying Think, Predict, Read, and Connect Strategy as a replacement of previous strategy. Think, Predict, Read and Connect strategy is an appropriate strategy to improve the students’ reading comprehension, because it emphasizes remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, and evaluating. This strategy also helps students to develop general knowledge before, during, and after reading. The objectives of this research were to know the students’ reading comprehension taught by using Think, Predict, Read and Connect strategy and without using Think, Predict, Read and Connect strategy, and to know whether there is a significant effect of using Think, Predict, Read, and Connect strategy towards students’ reading comprehension at the second year of SMAN 2 BANGKO-Bagansiapiapi. The population of this research was the second year of SMAN 2 BANGKO-Bagansiapiapi, and the samples were the first XI science class and the second XI science class. Mean of the students’ reading comprehension taught by using Think, Predict, Read, and Connect Strategy was 70.81. The students who passed the graduated standard (SKL) were 23 students (71.875%). And the students’ reading comprehension taught by using Think, Predict, Read, and Connect Strategy was categorized into “Good Level”. Mean of the students’ reading comprehension without being taught by using Think, Predict, Read and Connect Strategy was 55.75. The students who passed graduated graduated was 1 student (3.12%). And the students’ reading comprehension taught without using Think, Predict, Read, and Connect strategy was categorized into “Less Level”. From analysis of independent sample T-test formula. It can be seen that to is higher than t-table either in significance level of 5% or in significance level of 1%. It is concluded that Ho is “rejected” and Ha is “accepted”.
