Technique of teaching (steps of activity adapted by Veronika (2015) a writer in English Teaching Forum) #1



            The teaching technique that the researcher used is Student-Produce Text. This technique is suitable to the level at the second grade of SMP Negeri 12 Kendari. It is a technique where teacher divide students in pairs and teachers ask each of student to write three until five lines to start the story. In this case students are free to choose the topic of writing based on the concept of material development that encourages students to get involved. Then,  their peers complete the story, as in the following steps:
a.       Conduct a whole-class discussion about what kinds of stories students like to read and write.
b.      Explain what a story starter is. Be ready to show students an example if necessary.
c.       Inform learners that each of them needs
d.      After students finish writing, divide them into pairs. Ask them to exchange their story starters.  Tell students to finish their partners’ stories. Teacher also can make the activity more competitive by telling students that there is a prize for the best story.
e.       If there is time, have students read their stories and, if, teacher want, ask the class to vote on their favorite. The pair who has produced the best story can get a small prize. Teacher could also ask students to hand in their stories and, after teacher read them, teacher can announce the winner in the next class.
One option is to ask students to read their stories in groups of four. Each student reads his or her story to the group, and the group chooses the best one. Each group then nominates a speaker to read the story to the class. Each student in the group explains why he or she likes the story
