The smalping consisted of 35 students of the eleventh TJKT 2 grade of SMK Negeri Kalibaru, researchres used cluster The collecting data used questionnare and oral test. The result of data used Pearson product moment SPSS 21. The finding of the reserch indicates that there were the significant and correlation between studentAos reading aloud and pronunciation. According to the level of Pearson correlation, r count 0,738 > r table 0,325. There was high correlation between both of variables. There score sig was 0,000 < 0,005. Alternative of hypothesis was accepted. means reading aloud and pronunciation were positive significant, in English lesson as foreign languange at the eleventh grade of SMK Negeri Kalibaru Banyuwangi. Introduction Communications is a particularly vital aspect of human existence. Languange is one of the tools, to communicate an idea both orally or writing(Suherman, 2. https://doi. org/10. 35316/JOEY.

EFL acquisition occur at settings where the language has no significant role in the community, and also usually used in the classroom, so that why student do not have fluency when using English language (Haghighi & Norton, 2. Writing, speaking, listening, and reading are the four ability in English. Language understanding includes speaking, writing, listening, and reading. Reading is necessary for understanding a language. Reading is one of the Aua component of linguistic proficiency thatAy requires an interactived approach to Auunderstand meaning andAy getting information taken from written materials. The student need abilities like analyzing and interpreting the text in order to get the meaning of the text (Sofyan et , 2. Types of reading divided into several types of reading (Patel & Jain, 2. It is one of the most commonly used reading skill. This method can assist students in concentrating on the text's content. Reading aloud to students is crucial for their (Junaid, 2. Also. Speaking a text aloud is known as it. In addition to being a form of exercise where students must read a certain text aloud, reading aloud helps them with comprehending and pronunciation. (El Husna & Sari, 2. Being able for interaction with someone in the target language is a key goal of teaching and studying foreign languages. Communicating is the ability to comprehend and be interpreted. (Derwing & Munro, 2. One aspect of language is pronunciation since clear speech makes it easier for listeners to understand what is being said, it refers to a personAos pronunciation of a word or the way a phrase is said (Riyanto Setiana, 2. Pronouncing words correctly in English is one of the most difficult things to learn, therefore students must invest a lot of attention into it ( Gilakjani,2. Students` has to be mindful of pronunciation when the students communicate in order to the student understand each other. It will be difficult if the students have poor pronunciation. Aspect of pronunciation like diphthongs, monophthongs, vowel sounds, and consonant sounds, among other such words. The fact also found by the researcher, the students of SMK NEGERI Kalibaru have difficulty with pronunciation because they do not have fluency, also the student lack of practice, especially when reading aloud. They think pronunciation is the most difficult, and many students who do not active because English language incredibly boring and there is no expression and no intonation when reading aloud. The researcher to sum up on the point explained above, the researcher is interested to do the research to find out the correlated of students` reading aloud and pronunciation at SMK NEGERI Kalibaru. The objectives found in this study based on the problem statement are:to find out the correlated of students` reading aloud and pronunciation in eleventh tenth class at SMK NEGERI Kalibaru. From the result (Parmawati, 2. by There is no empirical data explicitly analyzing the relationship of reading habits and pronouncing proficiency among second-grade pupils in Indonesian educational contexts, despite the acknowledged significance of read habits in language acquisition. This study advances our The Correlated of Students' Reading . knowledge of language acquisition processes and highlights the need for teachers to use reading engagement tactics in order to enhance pronouncing results. Methods The researcher in this research used quantitative as this approach has been around for a while and has become typical of research techniques (Syahroni, 2. This research is correlation design. Correlation research is deceptive research which is referred because it describes a relationship between two variables or more (Fraenkel et al. , 1. Correlation design is quantative method (Sugiyono Prof. This research only focuses on students` reading aloud and Then, the data from questionnaire and test to know that some significance correlated of students reading aloud, and pronunciation. This research was carried out in SMK NEGERI Kalibaru which is located at Kalibaru. Banyuwangi. East java. The school has ten classes for the eleventh class. The class that has been researched is the eleventh class. The research during an educational the 1the Semester 2023/2024 and started on May based on the academic calendar and the schedule in the school. Population of this research has taken from the students of SMK NEGERI Kalibaru. Population of this research the eleventh classes was 480 students in academic year of 2023/2024. The totals sample of this research were 35 students at the eleventh grade of SMK NEGERI Kalibaru. The technique of sample used is cluster random sampling (Tamur et al. , 2. Cluster random sampling is used to determine the sample if the object to be used as a data source is very broad. The method is to randomly conduct one class as a research class (Sugiyono Prof, 2. and (Wahyuni, 2. the research study points out a serious flaw in conventional English learning strategies, which frequently overlook pronunciation drills, making Students feel bashful and uninspired when participating in reading assignments. Comprehensive research linking reading aloud to more general language abilities like listening and speaking, which are critical for complete language learning, is lacking. Some instruments can measure anything the researcher is interested in assessing, and The validity is a measure that shows how reliable an instrument is. (Sugiyono, 2. it is used to determine whether a questionnaire question is appropriate for reading aloud. This test was counted by the researcher using SPSS 21. Based on the table , r count 0,616**, 0,588**, 0,761**, 0,624**, 0,763**, 0,722**, 0,528**0, 644**, 0,726**, 0,497**> r table 0,396. Therefore, the variable X (Reading alou. is valid. To calculate the reliability of the questionnaire the researcher used Alpha Coefficient. The test is reliable if r Alpa > 0,60. The test used SPSS 21. Based on the table above, it concluded Alpa of reading aloud 0,922 > 0,60. Therefore, variable X (Reading Alou. is reliable. The student in this study was given a questionnaire by the researcher. The researcher questionnaire used criteria scale of four items. The Correlated of Students' Reading . Sirul Bari et al JOEY 4 . PP. Table 1.

Following data collection, the researchers to assess the data to determine the findings of the teethe research. The researcher will do tests using the normality, linearity, and hypothesis tests and use SPPSS. Finding Two variables and the correlation approach were employed from this research. Pronunciation was the variable of dependent, whereas reading aloud was the independent variable. The researcher administered an oral exam and a The Correlated of Students' Reading . The following could be the outcome of the pronunciation and reading aloud tests: The result of Reading Aloud The researcher gave questionnaires are 30 questions. The analysis of mean score of students reading aloud was 87. 43, median score was 87. 00, maximum score was 96, and minimum score was 82. The revealed the rate as a percentage of the 34 Students' reading aloud scores. With a student, the greatest frequency was 96, while with two students, the lowest score was 82. The result of Pronunciation The researchers make oral test. The study of the students' pronunciation found the mean result was 41. 77, the median was 40. 00, the mode was 40, the lowest was 40, and the maximum was 50. The pronunciation rate percentage of 34 students is given. The lowest score was 40 with 19 the students, and the maximum frequency was 50 with 2 students. Normality Test It is important to know related to truth of the selection of statistical test to be used that use kolmogorov-smirnov test for the results are as like: Table 3.
