Moreover, the learning method was still fetched up all standing  in lecturing method. The students were passive, they just listened to what the teacher delivered. This fact encouraged teachers to develop the learning methods which stimulated students’ interest in reading explanation text. The researcher made serious  effort to apply the Inside Outside Circle learning model. The aim was to improve learning activities and reading ability of explanation text. The object of this research was the eighth grade students of SMP Negeri 1 Mojoanyar Mojokerto. The method in this study used two cycles, each cycle consisting of four stages, namely planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting. The research instrument used tests and non-tests. The results of the study in the Inside Outside Cicle model were: (1) the average level of learning activity was 60.00% (quite active category), to 86.88% (active category), an increase of 26.88%, (2) the average value -The class average of 72.53 becomes 77.69, an increase of 7.57%, (3) students whose grades are low, there is an increase in the value of 30.43%, (4) the number of students who achieve very good reading skills increases by 3.13%, ( 5) completeness of student learning increased  21.88%. From this, it can be seen that there is an increase in student learning activities from being less active in reading to being more active.
