Language Learning is so important that it is included in the curriculum. We can obtain language learning in two ways, namely formal and non-formal (Fuady & Mutalib, 2. Formally. Indonesian obtained through educational institutions such as elementary, middle, high school, and college levels. While non-formal can be obtained through watching videos, reading books, newspapers, magazines, listening to radio and television broadcasts, and interacting with Indonesian users. Indonesian as one of the subjects that has the purpose of equipping students. Teachers/researchers in developing language through knowledge and information are not only limited to language and literature products. In the teaching and learning process, student involvement requires totality, meaning it involves mind, sight, hearing and skills. Efforts to improve the quality of learning Indonesian are by way of assignment. This task will train all aspects of language skills. Language skills are the most important aspect that students need to master, but not all students are able to master this. The inability of students to communicate well is due to the limited ability to grasp the speech of other students or not being able to answer Ideally, students are able to master four aspects of language skills, namely listening, speaking, writing and reading. In order for the interaction to take place interactively, it certainly requires tools, means or One of the media that is often used is audiovisual media. Audiovisual is one of the media that involves elements of image and sound. The advantage of this media will certainly seem more communicative because the output can be seen visually and also heard directly. With the existence of audiovisual media, it is hoped that the delivery of information can be clearer and more interesting (Jankowska, 2. In addition, the delivery process is usually carried out by appearing on the screen of the projector connected to a personal device such as a laptop or smart phone. Audio-visual media means a combination of tools that can be projected, moving, there are images, and sounds. The combination of image and sound can create a character that corresponds to the original object (Amatollah et al, 2. This medium can create something in a visual form similar to the object depicted, along with the original sound so that the person who sees or hears understands better. (Snaky, 2. Meanwhile, it argues that audiovisual media is defined as a collection of equipment used by teachers when providing ideas, concepts and knowledge that can later be captured through the senses of sight and hearing. A) Yes, this medium constitutes a channel of information that can be received by the senses of sight and hearing . (Sudjana, 2. Based on the above opinions, it can be concluded that audiovisual media is a tool used by teachers when providing ideas, concepts and knowledge that combine images and sounds according to their original character captured by the senses of sight and hearing. The existence of media cannot be ignored, especially in the learning process. If there is no learning medium, then the implementation of learning is less interesting. Audiovisual learning media is expected to have a positive influence in improving the listening ability of students. One of the Basic Competencies (KD) in learning Indonesian in class X is to retell the content of fairy tales or legends of the local area that are seen or heard through the use of audiovisual Learning storytelling skills is expected to help students get to know themselves, their Volume 21 Number 2 .

Fables are fictional stories in the form of fairy tales that depict human-like ethics likened to Animal characters in fairy tale stories are considered to represent human characters and are told to be capable of acting like humans but do not eliminate their animal characters. The animals in this type of story can talk and be as smart as humans (Danandjaja J. , 2. Fables can be a means of channeling one's feelings and creativity. The learning of fairy tales is not limited to who and when he learns them because anyone, anytime, anywhere a person can write fairy tales. However, the character of the animal corresponds to the will of the author. While school becomes the first place a person learns to write well. Learning to write in this case is to write stories, specifically to write fairy tales. Learning to write fairy tales should be an interesting thing. In fact, at SMK Negeri 1 Sengkang, especially in class X, there are still many students who have not been able to rewrite fairy tales well. Students still have difficulty in pouring imagination in rewriting fairy tale stories. As a result, he felt bored and lazy and thought that writing fairy tales was difficult and in the end his learning outcomes declined. Some students still have difficulty in determining the theme and rewriting the story in their own words, some students have not been able to analyze in depth the content of the fairy tale story that has been listened to, the lack of attraction and attention of the student to the fairy tale story. Less stimulates the active participation of students' hearing, as well as not being able to develop imagination such as writing, drawing and so on. The ability to write fairy tales for students at SMK Negeri 1 Sengkang is still very low, there are still many things that are not good, starting from the choice of words and spellings that are still wrong and do not match the structure of the fable story writer. The development of his imagination and creativity for writing was not revealed due to the lack of innovation and variety of learning carried out by educators. For this reason, in order to improve student learning outcomes and enthusiasm for learning, improvements are made to the learning process by applying audiovisual learning media. METHOD This study used a Classroom Action Research (PTK) design where action delivery is applied to a continuous cycle and is described as a dynamic process. The stages of the action research cycle begin with planning, acting, observation and reflection. The subject of the study was Class X students of SMK Negeri 1 Sengkang with a total of 32 people consisting of 15 female students and 17 male students. The research procedure consists of the planning stage, the teacher / researcher designs learning scenarios, designs observation sheets, and designs evaluation tools. Furthermore, the teacher/researcher must understand the learning scenarios he has created by paying attention to the suitability between implementation and planning, focusing on the process of action, situation, and student spirit in the classroom. In conducting monitoring and observation, teachers / researchers should use external observations so that the research results are more In addition, students also fill out observation sheets. The data collection techniques used in this study were test and non-test using data collection tools. Next conduct observations, interviews, and documentation. The data is analyzed quantitatively in the form of numbers and then converted into qualitative in the form of information in the form of sentences. Analyzing Volume 21 Number 2 .

From the interview results, it can be seen that students' ability to write fable stories is still low because there are several obstacles, namely . students are still less motivated to participate in writing learning, . students often have difficulty in finding and coming up with ideas, and . teachers have not used optimal learning strategies. In addition to interviewing teachers, researchers also interviewed several students to get preliminary information about students' knowledge and ability to write fairy tale stories. Here's a snippet.
