abstract: ABSTRACT
Writing is one of English skills which enables students to write down their ideas.
It is very beneficial because it can facilitate other activities during learning
process. Among kinds of texts taught by the teacher during writing activities is
recount text. Recount text is a text that retells about event, experience and action
in the past. In writing recount text one of the grammar that student has to pay
attention is past tense because tense determines when the event is happened.
Therefore, tense has a significant role in enhancing students writing skill. The
paper entitled “The Correlation between Students’ Understanding on Past Tense
and Their Ability to Write Recount Text” is intended to find out whether there is a
correlation between students understanding on past tense and their ability to write
recount text. The research population is the tenth grade students of Senior High
School 10 Bogor, with 179 students as the sample. They were asked to do two
tests, the first test was past tense test, divided into 2 parts: the first part consisted
of 10 questions and the second part consisted of 20 questions. The second test was
writing recount text, the students had to write down a recount text based on the
topic given in 100-200 words. In conducting this research, the correlation method
with Ex Post Facto design especially in Correlation Design using Pearson Product
Moment formula was used. The result of r- calculated is (0,102) and the result of
r- table is (0,147), so the value of r-table is higher than r-calculate. It means that
the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is rejected. Therefore, there is very low correlation
between students’ understanding on past tense and their ability to write recount
text. In conclusions, students who are good on past tense are not always good on
writing recount text.
