Abstract:
The present study, entitled Improving Students’ Reading Comprehension through
Interactive Read-Aloud, attempts to unlock problems found in teaching and reading
comprehension through interactive read-aloud in a Senior High School of Sport (SMAN
Olah Raga) Lampung, in Metro. The findings revealed that students’ reading
comprehension improved through interactive read-aloud. The improvement can be seen
from the increase of test results, meaning construction, and motivation. The process of
reading activities showed that the teacher’s gesture and body language, 20 questions,
explain and guess activities were proven to help the students construct meaning from the
given texts. In addition, interactive read-aloud is effective to boost students’ motivation
to comprehend the texts.
Key words: Reading comprehension, interactive read-aloud.
