Improving Results in Learning Bahasa for Poetry Readings with the Implementation of a Direct Learning Model for Fifth Grade Elementary School

Based on the results of research conducted in fifth
grade elementary school. In learning Bahasa about poetry
reading there are problems such as students not yet able to
understand how to read poetry because the teacher’s role is still
lacking during the learning process so that students look bored
and less interested, even most students are not serious about
learning. Therefore, it is necessary to have the right model to
improve the learning outcomes. The purpose of this study was to
improve the outcomes of learning Bahasa especially in how to
read poetry. The method used in this research is class Action
Research which refers to the method developed by Kemmis and
McTaggart (Aqib Zainal, 2006:31). This research model consists
of four main components, namely: a) planning, b)
implementation of action, c) observation, d) reflection. The
results of the study were carried out by applying the learning
model, the results achieved in the first cycle were 57.14% and the
second cycle reached 88%. The research results achieved by
applying the learning model are, in the first cycle is 57.14% and
the second cycle is 88%. Based on these results, the researcher
