The data from classroom observation were analyzed by classified, coded, interpreted and commented the results of classroom observation from field notes and video recorder in each meeting. In analyzing the questionnaire the writer used display interpretation based on the percentage of the computation which displayed into 10 tables completed with the description and conclusions from each item. These findings revealed that teaching reading narrative text by using inductive method shows the positive results. Most of the students (70,27%) responded that students could learned read narrative text by used inductive method. Based on these findings, it is recommended that inductive method can be used as an alternative way to teach reading narrative text to Senior High School or Junior High School.
