(3) the effect of using the quantum teaching model of quantum teaching to the poetry writing skills of eighth grade students of SMP Negeri 3, Payakumbuh District. This research is using experimental method. Data analysis shows that the quantum teaching model of quantum tandur is influential in learning to write poetry in Indonesian subjects in the experimental class. This is due to an increase in student grades which at the time of the pre-test mean value () is 67. After applying the type of quantum learning model (quantum teaching) in the learning process at post-test with an average value () is 80. This is seen from the results of the comparison of tcount with ttable (, 6798> 2,021) because tcount is greater than ttable then Ha (alternative hypothesis) is accepted. So, the learning outcomes of experimental class students who are taught with quantum teaching models are better than the learning outcomes of control class students who are taught using conventional methods.   Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan (1)  keterampilan menulis puisi siswa kelas VIII SMP Negeri 3 Kecamatan Payakumbuh menggunakan metode konvensional.
