So, the total population was 60 students. In drawing the sample, Cluster Sampling Technique by applying Picker Wheel Technique was used in this research. After carrying out the Picker Wheel Technique, X-2 was selected as the experimental class and X-1 was selected as the control class. The experiment class was taught by using PQRST Strategy by applying Wattpad Application while the control class was taught without applying Wattpad Application. The instrument used in this study was reading test in the form of multiple-choice test. The data were analyzed by using t-test. After the data had been calculated, itwas found that t-observed was higher than t-table (11,61 > 2.00) with the degree of freedom df =58 at the level of significance α = 0.05.
