Abstract

One difficulty in learning the second language is in understanding the contents of the reading text. This This study aims to improve reading comprehension skills with blended learning. This research is research and development in elementary schools. The population consists of fifth grade students in international schools. BIPA Learners (Indonesian for Foreign Speakers) are foreign nationals who live in Indonesia and learn Indonesian. BIPA students have difficulty understanding reading texts and interpreting words. This study concludes that learning with blended learning increased scores posttest with average value above the KKM and gave learners the opportunity and more time to repeatedly read reading texts. Students can learn the material first before learning in class so that they gain knowledge or reading comprehension skills in accordance with their respective abilities.
