narrative texts through Uncover Concentrate Monitor Evaluate (U-C-Me) strategy to the tenth
grade students of State Senior High School 8Palembang. In data analysis, it found that the result of
paired sample, the result of t-obtained was 26.64, where the value of t-table was 1.671 at
significance level of 0.05 and with one tailed testing. Since the value of t-table obtained was lower
than the value of t-table (26.64 < 1.671) consequently the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and
alternative hypothesis was accepted and the result of t-obtained was 5.09 at significance level of
0.05 and with one tailed testing. Since the value of t-obtained was higher than the value of t-table
(5.09 > 1.671) consequently the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and the alternatif hypothesis
(Ha) was accepted. It means that it was effective to teach reading narrative texts through Uncover
Monitor Evaluate (U-C-ME) strategy to the tenth grade students of state Senior High School 8
