A post-test was given after the treatment was done. Then, the data from the two tests were scored and the writer used SPSS for Windows version 16.0 to analyze the result of the pre test and post test. The result of T-test showed that the mean of the experimental group in pre-test was 63.06 and the mean of the control group was 65.06. After conducting the experiment, the writer gave the post test. The mean score of post-test of the control group was 67.33 and that of the experimental group was 78.00. The T-test calculation shows that the difference is significant. Teaching a descriptive writing text using miniatures is a good way for the students and the English teacher should be creative in creating the new ideas to teach English writing.
