ABSTRACTDescriptive writing is a one of genre taught in the year VII students of Junior High School based on Curriculum 2013. In writing descriptive, it is expected to the students are able to write a simple descriptive. Therefore through descriptive writing, the writer would like to minimize the students learning problem, to know the students achievements and their difficulties in learning writing. In 2013 English curriculum, there are four language skills that must be taught to Junior High School students, those are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. Oshima and Haque (1999:50) state that descriptive writing appeals to the senses, so it tells how something looks, feel, smells, tastes and sounds. Briefly, descriptive writing is used to make something clear and vivid, so that the readers can understand it. The teaching of English based on School Based Curriculum in Indonesia is delivered through text and context. Literary works are part of the text. They have been taught for all level of schools in Indonesia. Whether the subject is listening, speaking, reading, or writing, teachers of English should deliver it through text and context. Consequently, discovery learning refers to various instructional design models that engage students in learning through discovery. Discovery learning is a technique of inquiry-based learning and is considered a constructivist based approach to education. It is supported by the work of learning theorists and psychologists (Jerome Bruner, 1960). Commonly, seventh grade students of SMP Negeri 10 Palembang are afraid of making mistakes and worried about their ability in choosing and arranging words to produce sentences. Those feelings seem to make the students unconfident in a writing class. The Discovery learning technique tries to improve students’ writing  skill and make the students more active in the class because it contains some activities that encourage the students to write up in the class.Keywords : Writing, Descriptive Writing,  Discovery Learning, English Curriculum,  Literary Works ABSTRAK Penulisan deskriptif adalah salah satu genre yang diajarkan pada siswa kelas VII SMP berdasarkan Kurikulum 2013.
