Abstract

The listening skills of third-grade students at Primary School II Latihan SPG Ambon were initially suboptimal. This study aims to enhance these skills through the storytelling method. Employing a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design, the study was conducted over two cycles involving 28 students (15 boys and 13 girls). Data collection techniques included observation, tests, and interviews to ensure a comprehensive evaluation of student progress. The findings demonstrate a consistent and significant improvement across all research phases. The classical mean score rose from 62.42 in the pre-test to 67.85 in Cycle I, ultimately reaching 77.42 in Cycle II. More impressively, the student completion rate increased dramatically from 23.8% in the pre-test to 100% by the end of the second cycle, surpassing the established success indicators. Analytical results highlight that the most substantial growth occurred in the character understanding dimension, which saw a 50.7% increase, driven by the teacher's expressive delivery and narrative gestures. The study concludes that the storytelling method is highly effective in creating an engaging, imaginative, and meaningful learning environment. Consequently, it is recommended as an innovative, student-centered instructional approach to improve listening comprehension and literacy foundations in lower primary school grades.

Abstract

The low speaking skills of fifth-grade students at Elementary School 2 Ambon in learning Indonesian are the background of this research. Initial conditions indicate that students' abilities are still below the Minimum Completion Criteria. This research aims to improve students' speaking skills through the application of the sociodrama method. The type of research used is Classroom Action Research (CAR) model Kemmis and McTaggart. The research was conducted in two cycles involving 25 students as research subjects. Each cycle consists of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, oral tests, and documentation. The results of the study showed a consistent increase in speaking skills. The average class score increased from 62.60 (sufficient) in the pre-cycle to 69.20 in the first cycle and reached 79.76 (good) in the second cycle. The percentage of classical completeness increased drastically from 0% in the pre-cycle to 56% in the first cycle and reached 100% in the second cycle. The improvement includes aspects of intonation, pronunciation, fluency, expression, and self-confidence. This study proves that the sociodrama method is effective in creating an active, enjoyable, and student-centered learning environment, and provides practical references for teachers in their efforts to improve speaking competence in elementary schools.
