Abstract

This research was experimental research. It was investigated to know the students’ reading comprehension by using Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) Method and to know the significant influence of Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) Method in increasing students’ reading comprehension. The subject of this research was the second year students of SMPN 06 Kuantan Tengah. They consist of four classes (160 students). The researcher took two classes (40 students) as the sample of the research. In addition, the students were divided into two groups. They were experimental class consisting of 40 students and control class consisting of 40 students. The instruments of this research were observation and test. The observation was used to know the researcher’s activities in teaching reading comprehension by using Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) Method. The observation result was clearly seen that the researcher had done the activities perfectly. It can be seen from the observation sheet from observation I to VIII. In observation I, the total researcher’s activity was 2 (40%), in observation II was 2 (40%), in observation III was 3 (60%), in observation IV is 3 (60%), in observation V was 5 (100%), in observation VI was 5 (100%), in observation VII was 5 (100%), and in observation VIII was 5 (100%). Whereas, to analyze the data, the researcher used “t-test statistic” by using the formula as follow:                x y X y X Y N N N N x y M M t 1 1 2 2 2 Finally, based on the researcher’s findings, the result of tcalculated was higher than tdistribution in alpha decision level 0,05 and with the degree of freedom df 78(3.298>1.671). Regarding to the result, Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. It means that there was significant influence of Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) Method to increase students’ reading comprehension at the second year of SMPN 06 Kuantan Tengah. This finding showed that the students taught by using Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) Method have good result in reading Comprehension than who are taught by using conventional one.
