The eighth grade students of VIII-E class consisting of 23 students were participated in the study.

Quantitative method and pre-experimental approach were applied in this present study and t-test was used to analyze the data. The analysis resulted in the finding that the score of post-test exhibited significantly better than the score of pre-test. Then, the score of t-test was 13.33 at the degree of freedom of 22 and t-table is 2.069 at the level of significance 5% and 2.807 at the level of significance 1%.
