Abstract

The classroom action research conducted at SMPN 5 Kota Sorong with ninth-grade students aimed to explore the effectiveness of utilizing comic strips as a teaching tool to enhance students' writing skills in narrative text. The study involved administering writing tests as the primary instrument to evaluate students' writing proficiency. The pretest results indicated a mean score of 65.84, reflecting the baseline level of students' narrative writing abilities before the intervention. Following the implementation of the intervention, significant improvements were observed in the posttest scores. In Cycle I, the mean score increased to 74.20, demonstrating a notable enhancement in students' writing skills. Subsequently, in Cycle II, the mean score further improved to 83.87, indicating continued progress in students' narrative text writing proficiency. These findings suggest that integrating comic strips as visual aids in writing instruction positively impacted students' creativity, coherence, and storytelling skills. The results highlight the potential of innovative teaching approaches, such as incorporating visual storytelling elements, to effectively engage students and enhance their writing abilities. This study contributes valuable insights into the benefits of utilizing comic strips to support students in developing their narrative writing skills in educational settings.
