Summary

Introduction

PRELIMINARY Language skills are very important to be mastered by students. These language skills include listening, reading, speaking and writing. For the basic competencies of knowledge and skills, there are several types of new texts that have been mentioned. These texts are teaching materials that need to be taught to students. Students of SMP Negeri 5 Mandrehe are very active in writing activities but the structure of the Indonesian language used at the time of writing is still lacking. This contrasts with the skills that must be mastered in producing exposition text. Students of SMP Negeri 5 Mandrehe are not careful in writing the exposition text because of their inadequate ability to use Indonesian correctly and communicatively
