SBC is developed based on educational unit, school potential, school characteristics, social culture, and students’ characteristics (Mulyasa, 2006). In short, it is designed and implemented by each educational unit (Standar Nasional Pendidikan, ayat 1, pasal 15). The development of SBC is in the area of the school based on the school needs. It consists of the educational purpose, curriculum structure and content, educational calendar, and syllabus. While the application of SBC is based on Permendiknas No. 24 (2006) about standard of content and competency standard.
In English subject matter, the competencies involved in mastering the four language skills which are listening, speaking, reading and writing. It is expected that the students in secondary school, especially junior High School students, are able to communicate by usingEnglish.
In the communication, they are expected to be able to express information, thoughts, feelings, and also to appreciate cultures and develop science and technology (BSNP, 2006). The appreciation of culture is already being part of the expectation along with other competencies. The considerations of involving culture in the educational process are because it contains moral value and close to students’ life in the society. Based on Etymology Dictionary (Douglas Harper, 2010), culture is defined as the integrated pattern of human behavior that includes thought, speech, action, and artifacts and depends upon the human capacity for learning and transmitting knowledge to succeeding generation.
Moreover, Slavin (2009) states that by the time children enter school, they have absorbed many aspects of the culture in which they were raised, such as language, beliefs, attitudes, ways of behaving, and food preferences. From that consideration, Slavin also states that understanding students’ background is critical for effectively teaching both academic material and the behaviors and expectations of the school. In this research, the researcher uses that consideration to develop academic material especially reading material.
