Abstract

Writing is a vital skill for students to have. This research uses descriptive research methods that aim to improve the learning of narrative writing. This research was conducted at SDN 1 Pondok Kabupaten Ponorogo, SD Muhammadiyah Terpadu, and SDN 1 Jenangan. Data collection techniques are through observation, interviews, document analysis, and composition tests. Implementation of learning narrative writing in perspective of balancing of the brain function begins with a gradual learning structure with balanced brain activity through tangible objects, media images, audiovisual, music, and others. Giving stimulation based on right and left hemisphere of the brain functions provides a pleasing learning effect to students. It was proven that results of writing narrative students have improved both in content aspects, organization of content, vocabulary, grammar and spelling.
