Abstract

The English course emphasizes reading and writing. Through interpreting the written word, writing down thoughts and ideas, and receiving feedback, you will naturally improve your vocabulary and grammar skills. Plus, you'll have more words to express yourself clearly and communicate ideas effectively. Developing vocabulary and grammar skills not only helps speaking English. English develops naturally for native speakers. Many people don't understand the rules of formal grammar, but they know when something doesn't sound right to them. However, when you learn the rules of your own language, it can make learning a foreign language easier and more comfortable

Abstract

This research examines the effectiveness of English short story creation as a method to enhance students’ writing skills. Conducted at MA Al-Ma’arif Bonder with a sample of 16 tenth-grade students, the research employed a pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design. Writing skills were assessed based on five aspects: ideas/content, structure, vocabulary, grammar, and mechanics. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired sample t-test with SPSS 25. Results revealed significant improvement in students’ writing performance, with the mean score increasing from 56.8 in the pre-test to 75.3 in the post-test. The paired sample t-test produced a significance value of 0.000, indicating a positive effect of short story writing on students’ writing proficiency. This suggests that integrating creative writing activities into English instruction can foster students’ language development, motivation, and creativity.
