Abstract

This study aims to improve students' understanding of poetry (Lestari et al., 2024) through the application of the Gallery Walk method and puzzle media. Based on initial observations, students' understanding of the intrinsic elements and meaning of poetry is still low. This is due to a lack of varied learning methods and minimal active student involvement in the learning process. This study is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles with students of grade X-D at SMA Negeri 2 Malang as subjects. Data collection techniques used observation, tests, and documentation. The results showed that the application of the Gallery Walk method and puzzle media can improve students' understanding of poetry, as indicated by an increase in students' average scores from cycle I to cycle II. Therefore, this strategy is recommended for use in teaching poetry texts in the classroom.
