I. INTRODUCTION
Does the Wholesome Scattering Game was effected to improve students' ability in writing descriptive text at the eighth grade students of SMP Negeri 3 Pematangsiantar. The objective of research is to know the effect of wholesome scattering game to improve the students' ability in writing descriptive text at the SMP NEGERI 3 PEMATANG SIANTAR.
Descriptive text stretch out many information about certain people, things, and place clearly and detail.Writing descriptive text is one of genres in writing text. It is taught by teacher in order to make students know how to describe themselves and their surrounding although it is still in a simple way. However, many students have difficulties in writing descriptive text because the teacher only explains what the generic structure and the method how to write the descriptive text, the teacher does not use any method or new ways to teach the students. When the researcher was PPL in SMP NEGERI 3 PEMATANG SIANTAR, many students were not interested in writing especially in descriptive text. They could not write their ideas in a good text, because they did not understand well about how to write especially in descriptive text. Students often find some difficulties. They did not know how to write correctly, especially in choosing a word or vocabulary to put in the sentences. They feel difficult to organize their ideas. Furthermore, many students made some mistakes and faced difficulties to build and developed their imagination. In teaching learning process, teacher has important roles.
According to Harmer (2004:4-6) states that there are four main elements in writing process. Those are planning, drafting, editing (editing and revising), and final version. a) Planning b) Drafting c) Editing d) Final version

III. METODE OF RESEARCH
The research was conducted by applying Classroom Action Research (CAR). Research design have done with some steps as follow: a) Collect data such as documentation includes the number of thestudents, students' name list, and pre-test. b) Make a pre-test, to know the score of students writing in descriptive text before using wholesome scattering game. c) The researcher assesses the result of student's writing in pre-test.
Before the sample was collected, the researcher had to determine the population. Population is a set or collection of all elements processing one or more attributes of interest (Arikunto 2006:130). Population is geographic generalization there are: object/subject has quality and certain of characteristic that set by researcher to learning then make the conclusion.
Based on definition above, the research was conducted at SMP Negeri 3 Pematangsiantar, that is located in jln. Laguboti Ujung no 3 Peamatangsiantar. After researcher getting an agreement of the school principal and then consult to an English teacher who teaches at second year students of SMP Negeri 3 Pematangsiantar. The population of this research is all of the second year students which consist of eleventh classes. They are 312 students as the population.
According to Arikunto (2006:109,134), a sample must be representative to a population and if the subject had less then 100, its better take all the subject. Based on Ary (2002:163) a sample is a group of a population. Its mean that good sample must be representative of the entire as possible. The researcher conclude that the sample is a small unit of individual that exactly include in a research. Because of the sample of this research is more than 100 subjects, is better the researcher take 10% from the population. In formula 312x10%=31,2. So the researcher took 31 students as a sample. \ This research used an instrument for obtaining the research data. Here, the writer used writing test and will be implemented with pre-test and post-test.
To collect the data, the researcher goes with the following techniques: 1) Contributes pre-test, 2) Give the treatment of teaching writing descriptive text by using Wholesome Scattering game, 3) Distributes post-test,4) giving more detail about the treatment, 5) make post-test II And to know there is the improvement after the students being taught using wholesome scattering game or no. In this research, the researcher took some formula to knowing how the effectiveness of Wholesome Scattering Game in improving writing descriptive text by HadiSutrisno (1981:246-258)inNi'matulMaula (2018). 1. To knowing the mean score. To find the difference between pre-test and post-test by looking for mean, as the following formula: T-test or T 0 = Where: t = t-test for the difference between pre-test and post-test SD = Standard deviation D = Differences between pre-test and post-test N = Total number of students In knowing whether the students writing of descriptive text is improve or not, the researcher used the steps which were done by the researcher in analyzing the result students' writing in descriptive text. Furthermore, to analyze the data this research will use analyzing of the five categories, namely: excellent, good, fair, poor, very poor. ( Where =The percentage of students who get good and enough R = The number of the students who get good and enough T = The total number of students

IV. THE DATA AND DATA ANALYSIS
