Abstract

This study aims to improve the ability to write a dream plan using conditional sentences in class IX E students of SMP Negeri 10 Malang through the Dream Explorer Card media. This media was developed as a visual and thinking aid that stimulates imagination and encourages students to express ideas systematically. This study is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles, each consisting of two meetings, by applying the Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model. The results of the study showed a significant increase in students' writing skills, both in terms of sentence structure, content, and the use of appropriate conditional sentences. Learning completeness increased from 21.9% in the pre-cycle, to 56.25% in cycle I, and reached 93.75% in cycle II. The Dream Explorer Card media has proven effective in increasing students' motivation, creativity, and logical and imaginative thinking skills in writing activities.
