In post-test data, the mean score of the experimental class is 86.90, and the mean score of the control class is 62,25. Based on the analysis of the pre-test data, the value of Tcounted is 0,015, which is compared with Ttable is 1.685 or Tcounted < Ttable. It can be stated that there is no effect on pre-test data. Based on the analysis of the post-test data, the value of Tcounted is 1,801 that compared with Ttabel is 1.685 or Tcounted > Ttable , Ha is accepted. The Stort Story was effective to improve the students’ reading comprehension]]>
