Speaking is one of the language skills that prioritized in education curriculum at junior high school level (SMP) in Indonesia. However, there are still many students who have difficulty in speaking. This is due to the way teachers that teach ineffective and less varied, so that students are less motivated to interact with teacher or with other students in the classroom. Therefore, many techniques have been developed by educational experts to assist teachers in creating effective and efficient ways of learning. One of them is teaching speaking by using “information gap activity”. The use of this technique is expected to facilitate and motivate the students in improving their interaction in the classroom and also improve their speaking ability. This technique is used during the experimenting phase to help the students engage in fun conversation.

Abstract

Reading is an important skill that is needed in order to get information from written text. In reading, the students not only must be able to read the text, but they also must be able to comprehend the text in order to get the meaning from the text. However, many students have difficulties in comprehending the text and lacking motivation in reading. It is because there is a tendency that the teachers do not use an interesting strategy that can attract students’ interest. That is why this paper is conducted in order to explain how to use Uninterrupted Sustained Silent Reading (USSR) strategy in teaching reading comprehension to senior high school students. USSR strategy is conducted by providing the students to select their own reading material based on their interest and read it silently about twenty minutes without any interruption. This strategy can make the students relaxed and enjoyed the reading process. It is believed that this strategy can help many students in improving their reading comprehension ability. Key words: Reading, Reading Comprehension, USSR strategy
