The teaching-learning processes of this research become the processes of giving

treatment. The process of giving treatment is in order to make sure that the anticipation/reaction

guide strategy definitely give effect to the students achievement in reading comprehension and

to reach the main purpose of this research. The treatment is given after the researcher does the

pretest in the experiment and control class.

The experimental group gets a treatment by using anticipation/reaction guide strategy.

On the other hand, the control group is taught by conventional method. The treatment is

conducted for four meetings. There are 24 students in control group and 24 students in

experimental group who joined in this activity.

Implementation of Anticipation Guide strategy for the experimental group reflects the steps of
using Anticipation Guide strategy as follows.
1. The teacher checks the students attendance and greets the students.

2. The teacher does apersepi in the form of asking the things related with reading

comprehension.

3. Students receive information related to Base Competence, indicators, and objectives

learning.

4. Identify key concepts: before teacher learning identifies the main concept of the text

to be used in reading learning understanding.

5. Explores students' knowledge of the topic: students receive a topic related to text.

6. Make a statement: individually, the student writes that statement related to the topic.

7. Students form groups of 4 students.

8. Creating a sequence of statements: students order statements into a sequence of ideas.

10. Discuss the guide: students discuss and express consent and disapproval of the

statement by marking () on column provided with reasons.

11. Reading text: students read the text related to the topic on a regular basis intensive.

12. Re-discuss the guidelines: students clarify statement statements which they compile

with statements on the worksheet.

13. Students find the main idea of each paragraph in the text.

14. Students compile a text summary.

15. Some groups present their summary results in front of the class.

16. Other groups respond to the presented summary results. Master acts as a facilitator.

17. Students and teacher teachers reflect on learning.

18. Students conclude the lesson learned.
