Abstract

The purpose of this research was to examine the influence of English fairy tales on students’ reading comprehension in the 8th grade of SMP Negeri 1 Bulukumba. The study employed a quantitative method using a pre-experimental design with one group pre-test and post-test. A total of 27 students participated as the sample. Data were obtained from pre-test and post-test instruments, and analyzed through SPSS 26, focusing on descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, and frequency) and inferential statistics using a paired sample t-test. The results demonstrated a notable progress in students’ reading comprehension, where the mean score increased from 51.5 (classified as poor) to 74.3 (classified as average). The paired sample t-test revealed a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating that the null hypothesis was rejected while the alternative hypothesis was accepted. These findings confirm that the integration of English fairy tales as learning material and media significantly contributes to enhancing students’ reading comprehension. Therefore, the application of fairy tales can be considered an effective media in teaching reading to 8th-grade students.
