This study was an attempt to discover the effect of using Realia on students’ achievement in writing descriptive paragraph. It was conducted by using experimental research design. The population of this research was the eight grade students of MTS S GUPPI Tanjung Harapan, Rantauprapat which consists of three parallel classes with the total number of students are 90. The sample of this research was taken by random sampling. The result was class VIII-A consisting 30 students became the experimental group and VIII-B consisting of 30 students became the control group. The experimental group was taught by using Realia meanwhile the control group was taught by using Picture. The instrument for collecting the data was writing test. In the calculation of Ttest, the mean of students’ score in experimental group was 21.8 and the mean of students’ score in control group was 14.6. Standard deviation of experimental group was 1630.2, standard deviation of control group was 1568.8, and the total number of samples was 58, Tobserved is higher than Ttable. 3.977 > 2.004 at the level significance 0.05 for two tailed. The finding is if hypothesis stated that there is significant effect of using Realia as media learning on students’ achievement in writing descriptive paragraph is accepted.

This study was aimed to find out the effect of  Team  Assisted Individualization (TAI) method on students’ achievement in writing descriptive text. It was conducted by using experimental research design. The population of this research was the first (X) grade students of SMA Al-Hidayah Medan. It consisted of  104 students with 3 parallel classes. Students were chosen as the sample by using random sampling technique. There were two randomized groups, namely experimental group and control group. Class X-1 with 36 students became the experimental group while class X-2 with 36 students became control group. The Experimental group was taught by using Team Assisted Individualization (TAI) method and the control group was taught without a treatment. The instrument which was used for collecting the data was writing test. The data was analyzed by using t-test formula. The result showed that the mean of score in post-test for experimental group ( 68.48) ) was higher than control group (66.53). The value of tobserved (2.94) is higher than the value of ttable (1.994) (a = 0.05 ) with the degree of freedom (df) = 70. So, alternative hypotheis (Ha) was accepted and the Team Assisted Individualization (TAI) method significantly affected students’ achievement in writing descriptive text. Keywords : Team-Assisted Indiividualization, Writing Descriptive Text
