Based on the preliminary observation, there were some problems found. The students’ problems were the students’ interaction in the classroom was low, they also had insufficient vocabulary, and most of them did not actively involve in the activities and easily got bored in the teaching and learning process. The teacher’ problems were she tended to talk all the time rather than gave opportunities for the students to give their opinions and ideas. She still used monotonous reading activities and seldom taught reading strategies. Finally, those problems led the students to be passive in the reading class. Therefore, the effort made to solve those problems was by implementing cooperative learning activities in reading class. This research consisted of two cycles. In doing the research, the researcher involved 31 students of Class VIIIC, one English teacher as the collaborator, and the researcher herself. The data were obtained from the observation during the implementation of the actions, interviews with the students of Class VIIIC, and discussion with the collaborators. The data were in the form of interview transcripts and field notes. The validity of the data was obtained by applying democratic validity, outcome validity, process validity, catalytic validity, and dialogic validity. The result of this study shows that there is an improvement of students’ active involvement and the teaching-learning process of reading itself. It is shown by the active involvement and enthusiasm of students in doing the reading activities. In both cycles, they showed some improvement on participation, interaction, cooperation and responsibility when doing class and group discussion. In Cycle 1, the percentage number of the students for participation was 60.21%, for interaction was 52.68%, for cooperation was 53.76%, and for responsibility was 76.34%. In Cycle 2, the percentage number of the students for participation was 78.49 %, for interaction was 79.57%, for cooperation was 94.62%, and for responsibility was 96.77%. Related to the teaching-learning process of reading, the improvement is shown by the teacher who has taught some reading strategies, gives the students a lot of opportunities to be active, and applies various activities in reading class.
