There were some modifications of first cycle in the second cycle. Based on the data analysis, it could be said that basic questioning techniques successfully improved the students? ability in writing recount texts. The students? improvements were shown by the students? interest in responding the questions and their motivation in taking part of the activities in the learning process. It meant that there was a better participation of the students in the classroom.
