The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not the use of pictures and other media can increase students' reading comprehension. The study used a one group pre-test and post-test pre-experimental design. Twenty students served as the study's subject, and the research was carried out at SMP Negeri 2 Tondano. The writer employed tests with multiple choices and a completion of 10 numbers for each test in order to acquire the data. Prior to treatment, the students took a pre-test; following treatment, they took a post-test. The pre-test had an average score of 58.75 and a standard deviation of 6.68. The mean post-test score was 84.75, and the standard deviation was 6.0 1. One could argue that the post-test outcome was better than the pre-test. Thus it could be concluded that the use of pictures as media can improve students reading comprehension.
