Abstract

In the process of teaching and learning English, learners' ability in mastering the four basic language skills becomes an important goal. Language skills include listening, speaking, reading and writing. However, reading should be emphasized first because the abilities to read and comprehend assist writing and speaking abilities (Bao, 2004). Most of the young learners have difficulty in reading. They cannot understand a text that they read. Indeed, comprehending a text is not easy for young learners. That is because young learners are rarely encouraged to read, and they also seldom have opportunities to read. They cannot really know how they comprehend the meaning of a text because of the lack of practice, lack of attention from the teacher, lack of motivation in the classroom, and the use of inappropriate strategies in the teaching of reading. So, teachers must do everything possible to make children’s reading experience successful. In this case, the researcher interests to test the effect of using text-based task on reading comprehension towards young learners in SDN Tambak Beras.
