Question words are some words that have been familiar to learners. These words have been introduced to the students since they were in the first semester of junior high school. Based on the researcher’s observation, the students of SMP Negeri 2 Dharma Caraka Gunungsitoli Selatan have learnt question words but it seems that the students get difficulties applying question words. Some students think that English is a difficult lesson, and it is because the students can not involve in the learning process. Nowadays, in the teaching-learning process, the students are the center of learning. The students must be active and a teacher as an instructor, motivator and supervisor. It means that a teacher should realize first his role in the teaching-learning process. In conducting this research, the researcher used Classroom Action Research.
