This study aims to
produce exposi tory text teaching materials that contain natural
and social environments in the form of magazines for class VIII with the
concept attainment learning model. The stages in the development of Pertiwi
teaching materials are based on Borg and
Gall's development research steps and are adjusted to the stages of developing
teaching materials by the Ministry of National Education (2008: 12).

in the implementation class were 32 students from class VIII-H. Data collection
methods in this study using interview techniques, validation, observation,
questionnaires and learning outcomes tests. The results of the study include: (1)
a description of the process and results of the development of Pertiwi teaching
materials, (2) a description of the results of the analysis of the validity of
Pertiwi's teaching materials, (3) a description of the results of the analysis
of the effectiveness of Mother's teaching materials, and (4) a description of
