Based on curriculum of senior high school, it is taught in eighth grade students in the second semester. Writing is one of skill that must be mastering of students and it is difficult subject because writing share idea from their brain.

And for the teachers who also really influence in teaching and learning process can help the students in improve their skill by enrichment the students‟ knowledge.

Kata kunci: Writing, teks recount, and suggestopedia
Teks recount adalah salah satu genre (macam-macam teks) yang menjelaskan tentang kejadian yang terjadi di masalalu. Sesuai dari kurikulum dari SMP N 1 Mejobo Kudus. Itu diajarkan di kelas 8 pada semester kedua. Menulis adalah salah satu kemampuan yang harus di kuasai oleh siswa dan itu adalah pelajaran yang sulit karena menulis menyampaikan ide dari pikiran. Di dalam penilitian ini, siswa harus menulis sebuah paragraf tentang teks recount di semester 2. Suggestopedia adalah metode baru untuk menyampaikan meteri dengan menggunanakan musik klasik. Dalam penilitian ini saya menggunakan teks recount tulis untuk mengukur kemampuan siswa dalam menulis. Tujuan dari penilitian ini adalah mengetahui kemampuan siswa dalam menulis teks recount siswa SMP N 1 Mejobo Kudus kelas 8 tahun ajaran 2011/2012. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif kuantitatif. Penilitian ini bertempat di SMP N 1 Mejobo Kudus kelas 8 tahun ajaran 2011/2012 dan memberikan siswa test tertulis. Saya meminta menulis sebuah teks recount dengan kata- kata mereka sendiri. Hasil dari penilitian ini menunjukan bahwa kemampuan siswa SMP N 1 Mejobo Kudus kelas 8 tahun ajaran 2011/2012dalam menulis teks recount adalah bagus, (nilai tertinggi 93, meandian 79.3 dan standrat deviasion 8.4). Sedangkan masalah yang di hadapi siswa adalah grammar dan kosakata. Setelah melakukan penilitian saya menganjurkan agar siswa mengembangkan kemampuan dalam menulis dengan menciptakan kebiasaan baru dalam belajar bahasa inggris. Dan meningkatkan penguasaan pengetahuan agar mereka dapatmenuangkan ide – ide mereka dengan mudah. Bagi guru dapat membantu siswa dalam meningkatkan kemampuan mereka.
