In the initial data obtained through the observation process carried out by researchers, students who managed to get standard scores were 17 students or 53.125%, while students who failed to get standard scores were 15 students or 46.875%. Then based on the problems in class, researchers and teacher collaborators carried out cycle 1. In cycle 1, the results of students who managed to get a standard score of 78 or ≥ 78 were 18 students or 56.25%, while those who did not. Success is 14 or 43.75%. Because these results were not optimal or had not reached the target indicators of success, the research continued to cycle 2. In cycle 2, it was founded that 19 students or 59.375% succeeded in obtaining scores according to the standard score, while 13 students or 40.625% did not succeed.
