Pre-writing is a preparation process before writing where students gather ideas, organize information, and plan their writing so that pre-writing has a significant influence on student writing outcomes. This study aims to analyze the effect of using whisper and write games as students' pre-writing activities on the descriptive writing abilities of the seventh-grade students at MTs Mamba'us Sholihin Gresik. This research uses class action research (CAR). The results showed that the improvement was seen from the cycle I and cycle II learning that had been implemented, comparing between cycle I and cycle II. The increase in learning outcomes was 76.19%, the increase obtained from the evaluation results in the first cycle was 14.28% and the second cycle was 90.47%. the learning outcomes of the last cycle show that the mastery of learning exceeds the KKM of 75%. Based on the results of the study it was explained that the use of whispering and writing as pre-writing activity games can help to understand and improve students' skills in writing descriptive text. and this can be seen from the increase in the percentage of student scores in each cycle. and the application of CAR can help students achieve the KKM target.

This study aimed to reveal the use of word-chain games as a strategy in teaching Arabic spaking skill (maharah al-kalam) . This study used a qualitative approach where data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation studies. The qualitative analysis methodologies of Miles and Huberman were used for this study. Qualitative analysis consists of three steps after data collection: data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawing or verification. Based on the results, maharah al-kalam learning using word chain games has an impact on the quality of the process, as evidenced by increased results. Students become more active, and their motivation increases. Improving the quality of the learning process is evidenced by the active participation of students in responding to teacher statements as well as their enthusiasm in perfecting sentences spoken by other groups. Learning outcomes are getting better, but fluency and memorization of vocabulary cannot be improved using the word chain game. According to observers and practitioners of Arabic language education, word chains have an impact on teaching speaking skills; therefore, it is important to explain their use in Ilamic Junior High School (Madrasah Tsanawiyah).
