This research was designed in CAR (Classroom Action Research). This research was conducted in order to improve the skills of writing narrative text and learning process of writing narrative text by using caption picture media. The researcher used caption picture media since this media is good at stimulating the students to easily develop their ideas based on the caption which gives obvious information of the pictures (Weir, 1990:62). The subject of this research was 34 Social Studies 3 students of Public Senior High School 7 of Malang Even Semester in Academic Year 2015/2016. The data collection was done by using 4 instruments, namely a pre-test, a scoring rubric of writing a narrative text used by the researcher, an observation sheet used by the collaborator, and a student questionnaire. This research has successfully developed a model of teaching narrative text writing by using caption picture media with the following procedure: (1) the teacher makes a group of 5; (2) each group is given a series of scrambled pictures for a story; (3) each group rearranges the pictures into a correct order; (4) the students individually write a narrative text based on the rearranged pictures. It is proved that there were some improvements after using this media. This media is recommended for teaching writing narrative text
