Abstract

This research was motivated by the students’ low mastery in five components of writing in producing procedure text. Students’ lack of vocabulary to write and feel confused and doubt how to start writing. They also have low motivation and interested to write because they thought that writing is difficult activity. As a consequently writing was hard activity for students. Therefore, it needed a way to help students develop their writing ability. One of the ways was to apply it as an appropriate strategy that called Semantic Mapping Strategy. The purpose of this research was to prove whether any significant effect on students’ writ ing abilit y who taught through Semantic Mapping Strategy with the students who taught through conventional strategy in procedure text at grade IX of MTsN 2 Padang Pariaman. In this research the data population was all of the students at class IX of MTsN 2 Padang Pariaman that consists of 206 students who were divided into six classes. Then, the researcher took class IX.3 and IX.4 as the sample. Next, researcher was chosen IX.3 as the experiment class and IX.4 as control class that both of classes consist of 64 students by using flapping a coin. In collecting the data, researcher used written test. The test was given to both classes with the same topic. Then, post-test was given after doing treatments for several meetings to determine the effect of Semantic Mapping Strategy. This research showed that t- i calculate (9,31) was bigger than t- (5,89). While, mean scores of students’ writ ing in experiment class (77,76) was higher than the mean score of students’ writing in control class (62,92). Moreover, each components of writing both of classes were different. It can be seen from the comparison of students’ mean scores of post -test. Statistically, it was proved that teaching writing through Semantic Mapping Strategy gave significant effect on students’ writing skill. It can be concluded that the effect Semantic Mapping Strategy made the students’ writ ing had better than conventional strategy especially in considering five components of writing at grade IX MTsN 2 Padang Pariaman. So, this strategy can be recommended to help students to improve their writing skill especially in procedure text.
