Abstract: This research was motivated by the problem of students' low reading comprehension skills. The aims of this research are (1) to determine the implementation of the reciprocal teaching model using pop-up book media in class IV at MI Al-Washliyah Perbutulan Cirebon, (2) to determine the reading comprehension ability of class IV students at MI Al-Washliyah Perbutulan Cirebon, (3) to determine the effect of the reciprocal teaching model using pop-up book media on the reading comprehension ability of class IV students at MI Al-Washliyah Perbutulan Cirebon. This research uses a quantitative approach with quasi experimental methods and a nonequivalent control group design research design. The sample consisted of 60 students, consisting of 30 experimental class students and 30 control class students.
