Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the CIRC learning model in teaching poetry writing
skills for VIII grade students of SMP Al Ikhlas Jatinegara in the 2019/2020 academic year. The research approach
used is a descriptive quantitative approach to the type of experimental research. There are two types of variables in
this study, namely the independent variable and the dependent variable. The independent variable is the CIRC learning
model, and the dependent variable is the students' poetry writing skills. The population of this study were students of
class VIII SMP Al Ikhlas Jatinegara with a total of 50 students. The sampling technique used is a non-probability

of the CIRC learning model can be shown from the results of data analysis with the SPSS 16.0 application, which is a
significance value of 2 tailed 0.000 less than the significant level of 0.05. In addition, the manual formula calculation
shows that tcount = 10.30 while t table = 1.67 with a significance level of 0.05 and degrees of freedom 48. Thus the
null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted.
