The formulation of this research are 1) how is the students‟ writing of descriptive text before using numbered head together technique at grade X MAS Baharuddin, 2) how is the students‟ writing of descriptive text after using numbered head together technique at grade X MAS Baharuddin, 3) is there any significant effect of using numbered head together technique on students‟ writing of descriptive text at grade X MAS Baharuddin. This research used two group pre-test and post-test design. The instrument of this research was writing test (pre-test and post test).
