It is aimed at finding out whether or not there is effective. This research is called a quantitative research with an experimental design. In this research, the population is the eighth grade students of SMP N 4 Purworejo with the total number of population is 256 students. The sample of this research is 64 students, they are 32 students as control group and 32 students as experimental group.

The researcher analyzed the data using descriptive statistics to find mean, median, mode, range, standard deviation and variance, whereas inferential analysis is used to prove the hypothesis test in the significance level 0.05. The result of of t-test based on the computation of SPSS 16.0 show that tvalue > t-table (7.216>2.000) and p-value<α (0.00<0.05) at the 95% confidence interval of the differences. It is significant because the Sig. (2-tailed) is lower than 0.05 (0.00<0.05). In addition, the result of the data analysis shows that the mean of score pre-test experimental group is 72.81 and the mean of score post-test is 78.59. It is increasing of score was 5.78. Therefore, the researcher’s hyphothesis with 0.95 or 95% of significant level is accepted and consequently null hyphothesis (Ho) is rejected.
