The method used in this study was quantitative research and the research design was quasi-experimental study. The researcher used Cluster Random Sampling technique to choose the sample. For 165 students of the population, class VIII B was chosen as the experimental class and VIII D as control class. The instrument of this research was in form of multiple choices test for pre-test and post-test. The test was narrative text and there were 30 multiple choice items for each test. The researcher used formula t-test to analyze the data. The result of this study shows that there was a significant difference on students’ reading comprehension of narrative text by using picture series and without using picture series. The mean score for experimental class was 61.5 (pre-test) and 83.8 (post-test). The mean score for control class was 71.8 (pre-test) and 82 (post-test). It can be seen that on the df =81 in the degree of significance 5%, the value of degree significance is 1.98. By comparing the value to and tt the result showed that to is higher than tt (to>tt = 5.44>1.98). The alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected. Therefore It can be concluded that there is a significant effect of using picture series on reading comprehension of the second year students of SMPN 40 Pekanbaru.Key words: Effect, picture series, reading comprehension
