Abstract

This research is motivated by the problem of the low reading comprehension skills of students in elementary schools. This is due to the lack of conformity in the method of reading learning activities so that students feel bored when learning to read. Students are less able to guess the contents of the reading, students do not understand the contents of the reading, students do not understand in making conclusions from the reading results they read, and students lack the reading habit of understanding. This study aims to determine the effect of DRTA strategies on comprehension reading skills in Class V of Primary Schools. This type of research is quasi-experimental research (quasi-experimental) with the design of nonequivalent group pretest-posttest designed. The population in this study were all class V students in the second semester of elementary school in one of the cities of Padang consisting of 2 classes totaling 57 people. VB class as experimental class and VA class as control class. The experimental class was treated using a DRTA strategy on comprehension reading skills while the control class used direct learning.
