Third, from the results of hypothesis testing that the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted at a significant level of 95% and dk = n1 + n2-2 because tcount> ttable (2.15> 1.66). In other words, there is a significant comparison between the use of the Numbered Head Together and Snowball Throwing learning models on the skills written by grade VIII students of SMP N1 Sungai Beremas.
