In the classroom the teacher used three reading stages that include pre-reading, whilst-reading, and post-reading activities. Based on the research findings, It can be concluded that pre-reading activities used by the teacher are intended to arouse the students’ interest and motivation and to activate their background knowledge and whilst-reading activities are done to involve them more actively. Meanwhile, post-reading activities are conducted to give them a chance to relate what has been read with their daily experience.
