To fulfill the validity of the data, the researcher follows some criteria of the validity proposed by Burns (1999). The research results show that the varied and systematic reporting tasks can improve the students’ reading skills of the tenth grade students of SMA N I Pleret, Bantul. Those tasks are essay tasks, reading report, and finding the meaning of words. Those tasks were given to the students to improve students’ reading skills. Those skills are skimming, scanning, guessing meaning of difficult words, developing silent details to summarize the text, recognizing the structure of the text, and recognizing grammatical word classes. The varied and systematic reporting tasks can also improve the students’ discipline in doing the tasks. It was shown that the students did the tasks seriously.
