While mean score of control class is 68.6 with standard deviation is 6.6. From the calculation of the result of the test, it was indicated that t calculate was 5.1 and t was higher than t table table ii test 1.667 with α = 0.05 and degree of freedom 68. So, the t (5.1>1.667). Moreover, each component of writing both of classes were different.
