G. Theoretical Background
Researcher has some theories that are relevant studied and used as the main
inggredient in connection with the theme of the discussion.
A. Teaching
Teaching is one of educative activies. In educational system, teaching
plays an important role in which an interaction between a teacher and students

7. 7
teaching process, a teacher stands in front of the classroom to present a certain
subject matter and students are required to sit and listen it.2
Teaching is also defined as the process of providing guidance and
assistance to students in the learning process.3 Thomas M Risk explained that,
"Teaching is the guidance of learning experiences". So, teaching is process
transfer of knowledge from teacher to students in the learning process.
B. Teaching Reading
1. Definition of Reading
As one of language skill, reading can be defined as an activity to grasp
language patterns from their written representation.4 Reading is an interactive
process that goes on between the reader and the text, resulting in
comprehension. The text presents letters, words, sentences, and pargraphs that
encode meaning. The reader uses knowledge, skill, and strategies to determine
what that meaning is5. In addition, reading is combination of decoding and

H. Theoretical Framework
Based on theoritical analysis above, the theoritical framework can be stated as follow:
1. If the result of using game for teaching reading is good, so the students'
reading skill will increase.
2. If the result of using game for teaching reading isn't good, so the students'
reading skill will not increase. Finally, the teachers again used the preaching
method in teaching reading.
3. If the students' scores taught by using game are better than using the preaching
method, so the using game is more effective in teaching reading.
I. Hypothesis

14. 14
Hypothesis in this research can be stated based on the theoretical analysis and
theoritical framework. The hypothesis as follow:
Ha: There is significant differences between the using of game and preaching method
in teaching reading for the tenth grade students of MAN 2 Madiun in academic year
2012/2013.
Ho: There is no significant differences between the using of game and preaching
method in teaching reading for the tenth grade students of MAN 2 Madiun in

A. Research Design
This research applies a qualitative approach. For qualitative researcher.
The purpose of phenomena can understood carefully if conducted through
interaction with thw subject by deep interview. Besides that, it can do through

15. 15
observation now to the location of phenomena.10In education, qualitative
research is frequently called naturalistic because the researcher frequents
places where the events he or she is interested in naturally occur. Moreover,
people engaging in natural behavior gather the data: talking, looking, and so
on.11
Thus, in the qulitative research, natural setting takes place. The
statement offers an idea that data is collected naturally by observing a
phenomena while it is happening and conducting a verbal communication with
respondents.
B. Researcher Role
The characteristic of qualitative research is not being able to separate from
participant observation. Nevertheless, the role of research determines the
entire of scenario. Therefore, in this research the researcher is a key
instrument, as the full participant and as a data collector, whiles other
instruments support the data.
