The sample consisted of 58 students, taken by simple random sampling, with 29 students in the experimental class (X-2) and 29 students in the control class (X-1). The instrument for collecting data was a writing test. The datas were analyzed using the t-test formula.

The findings showed that the t-score (6,3) was higher than the t-table (1,673) at the significance level of 0,05 (5%) with 56 degrees of freedom. This result indicates that Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected. It means that there was significant effect of using Hamburger Strategy on Students' Writing Recount Text.
