Grammar is one of important element in writing, and its role becomes more essential for certain kind of text such as report text. However, in process of language learning, not all students can compose their writing with well-constructed grammar. Some students still tend to make errors. The same went to the students of XI IPS grade of MAN Kunir Blitar. They were not perfect. Moreover, any English lesson they had learnt needed checking whether the students had achieved the learning objective or not. Here, discovering any possible errors made by the students in their writing could be very helpful in any purposes for teacher. As those errors could be significant for students’ progress, teacher should act towards the errors. Thus, it was necessary to uncover what kinds of grammatical errors students made before further action is then made.
