Abstract

Background: Phonological skills are the basic ability to connect sounds with letters and recognize word patterns. Good phonological abilities make it easier for children to recognize letters and words, and increases their confidence when learning language and literacy. Objectives: This study aims to provide an overview of the phonological abilities of first-grade elementary school children and to provide an overview of the phonological abilities of first-grade elementary school girls and boys in Surakarta City. Methods: Quantitative method with descriptive analysis techniques through a cross-sectional approach. The research sample consisted of 102 first-grade elementary school children, comprising 52 girls and 50 boys. The sample was selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. The instrument used was an articulation test analyzed based the phonological processes. Results: There were 9 respondents who were only able to produce 43 of the 44 consonants correctly. The phonological processes experienced included metathesis in two boys and one girl, final consonant deletion in one boy and one girl, gliding in two boys, backing in one boy, and initial consonant deletion in one boy. Conclusion: The phonological abilities of 7-year-old first graders still demonstrate several phonological processes. Overall, girls have superior phonological abilities compared to boys.  Keywords: Elementary School Children, Phonological Processes, Profile of Phonological Skills.

Abstract

Background: Reading accuracy in second grade is a critical foundation for literacy. In second grade, children are in the early stages of learning to read, a critical phase for their future literacy development. This phase is often referred to as learning to read, during which children build the foundations of decoding, fluency, and early comprehension strategies. Objectives: This study aimed to describe the reading accuracy profile of second-grade elementary students, including mean, variation, and score distribution by gender and age. Methods: A quantitative descriptive method was used with 25 students (age 7.1–8.9 years, 48% male, 52% female). The instrument used was the reading subtests of the Indonesian Phonological Awareness Test (IPAT) developed and validated by Wibawati et al. (2025), consisting of three subtests: word reading, non‑word reading, and sentence reading (each score range 0–10). Descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis, frequency distribution) were applied. Results: Results showed very good mean scores (8.16–8.32), high medians (8–10), but moderate standard deviations (2.04–2.56). A total of 60–68% of students achieved the maximum score of 10, but 4% scored 0. The distribution tended to be negatively skewed. No notable differences were found between male and female scores. Conclusion: the majority of students have mastered reading accuracy well, yet variation still exists and a small group with very low scores requires early intervention.
