Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of picture media in improving the narrative writing skills of Grade V students at SD Inpres 109 Perumnas, Sorong City. A pre-experimental research design with a one-group pretest-posttest design was adopted. The research population comprised all Grade V students at SD Inpres 109 Perumnas, Sorong City, with a purposive sample of 23 students. Data were collected through narrative essay instruments administered as a pretest and posttest, supplemented by observation and documentation. Instrument validity was assessed by expert validators, and reliability was calculated using the Kuder-Richardson 21 (KR-21) formula. Descriptive analysis yielded a mean pretest score of 57.17 and a mean posttest score of 77.21, representing an improvement of 20.04 points (22.80%). Normality testing via SPSS confirmed that both data sets were normally distributed (pretest Sig. = 0.436 > 0.05; posttest Sig. = 0.201 > 0.05). Hypothesis testing through the paired sample t-test produced a t-count of 6.026 against a t-table of 1.68 (df = 22; α = 0.05), indicating that H₀ is rejected and H₁ is accepted. It is concluded that the use of picture media is effective in significantly improving the narrative writing skills of Grade V students at SD Inpres 109 Perumnas, Sorong City.
