INTRODUCTION

A. Background of the Research

Language is very important in our lives, because it is always used in our daily activity to communicate with the others. We can’t communicate each other without language, because it is one of the communication tools used by people in general. We can use language to convey our messages or to express our ideas through oral, written, or signal languages.

There are some more countries that used the kind of languages in this world including English. One of the countries is Indonesia that has been our beloved country. It has Indonesian language and the other countries do too.

Although there are many kind of languages in this world, all of the people from over the world can communicate each other by using English because it is an international language used among them to communicate. It is identic with the Janet Holmes state in his book by saying:” A world language or international language is English language. It was used by people such as in economic,

political and also education.”3 In Indonesia, English as the foreign language that was taught in every

school from the elementary to the university level. The study of foreign language as the main lesson for the students who learn their first foreign language. They study it by mastering the four basic languages namely: listening, speaking, reading and writing. The first is mastering listening skill. Students listen to every sound in the environment. The second is mastering speaking skill. In this step, they try to practice what they listen. The third is mastering reading skill. Usually they start learning this skill when they study in kinder garden or elementary school. The fourth skill is mastering writing skill. Those are four language skills which should be started by people when they study language.

Speaking is a crucial part of the foreign language learning and teaching, because it can be used for the student to express their ideas orally in foreign language. Without speaking skill they will just keep silent. In order to speak well, they must practice their skill in everyday live. Therefore, the teacher should give students opportunity to practice their speaking skill by giving some more

example or activities that put them into the real practice communication.

In English lesson there are many text types which is should learn by students. One of them is procedure text. According to Oxford Learner Pocket Dictionary, procedure is usual or proper way of doing something. When we talked about procedure we also talked about process, because procedure is process of doing something. We also have taught about procedure in islamic

teaching, for example the process or procedure of making human. It was explained in the holy Qur’an surah Al-Mu’minun: 12-154

?And indeed We create man (Adam) out of an extract of clay (water and

earth).Thereafter We made him ( the offspring of Adam) as a Nutfah

(mixed drops of the male and female sexual discharge and lodged it) in

safe lodging (womb of the women). Then We made the nutfah into a clot

( a piece oof thick coagulated blood), then We made the clot into a little

lump of flesh, then We made out of that little lump of flesh bones, then

We clothed the bones with flesh, and then We brougt it forth as another

creation. So Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators. After that, surely you

will die”.

The explanation of versus above is actually We take the oath that We created human, that is kind of human that you witnessed, started from extract of clay that is from ground. Then, We made the extract become nutfah (mixed drops of the male and female sexual discharge and lodged it) then We safe it in womb of women. Then We created nutfah become alaqah, after that We created

alaqah became mudhghoh that is a clot ( a piece off thick coagulated blood), then We made it into a little lump of flesh, then We made of out that little lump flesh with flesh bones, then we clothed the bones with flesh, then we gave a life and we made a creature that different with other creature. So, Allah is the best creator. After that, its mean after thoughing that processes and processes in the

earth strated from baby, child, tenageer, adult and old, you will die.5 From the explanation above, we can see that there are many steps before human is created.

CCHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. Background of the Study
Teaching and learning activity in writing need some skills for the students to master. Writing is the difficult skill in language because in writing the students must generate and organize their ideas to solve the difficulties in writing. The difficulty of writing includes spelling, punctuation, word choices, and so on. It must be the higher level skills if the students’ language proficiency is not weak. This is one of the difficulties in writing as well.
Beside that, in writing skills become highly complex. The students must plan and organize as well as possible for the spelling, word choice and punctuation to make a good writing.1 Whereas the ability or skills to write well is a close relationship to academic and professional success. It is stated by Grabowski (1996). He states that:
“Writing, as compared to speaking, can be seen as a more standardized system which must be acquired through special intruction. Mastery of this standard system is an important prerequisite of cultural and educational participation and the maintenance of one’s rights and duties. . . The fact that writing is more standardized than speaking allows for a higher degree of sanctions when people
deviate from that standard.” (Grabowski,1996:75)2
Writing allows the students to share their communication with the contemporaries and future generation. Writing is considered as student failures to get success in learning process. Even the teacher uses the writing as punishment for students. However the students must learn the proper
spelling and grammar in order that they can make a good writing. So they aren’t considered as poor students in English writing.3

Then, the students will be able to write a good writing if the teacher give some approaches to them. There are three approaches to writing. The first approach is products of writing through texts examination, discourse structure, and surface elements. The second approach focuses on the writer
and process concluding expressivist, cognitivist, and situated strands. And the third approach is how the writer engages with the audience or students in creating coherent texts.4
After the students are able to be creative in writing and they have approaches in writing, the teacher must have style in teaching writing especially in recount text. Mary Lynn Crow notes that:
“In the main, a person’s values, beliefs, and philosophy can easily be ascertained by the way he or she teaches.
The instructional strategies and techniques that are adopted by a teacher bespeak his attitudes about himself, his students, and their respective roles in the teaching and learning process.”
In this case, the style in teaching is important for the teacher. But it is difficult to have the elements of styles. To understand the teaching style, the teachers use the basis and must examine themselves because it is systematic manner. They must know the personal qualities and behaviors. So it can
affect the students to learn the ability especially in writing.5
In understanding recount text, the students also encounters problem in implementing the structure of recount text. The students feel confused to differenciate it such as orientation, events, and reorientation. The are also still confused how to make or write recount text correctly.6 In order to
understand a good recount text, they can learn some examples of recount text types such as newspaper reports, conversations, speeches, television interviews, eyewitness accounts, and letters.7
