Abstract

Pengenalan nilai-nilai agama sejak usia dini memainkan peran penting dalam membentuk karakter anak. Observasi awal menunjukkan bahwa banyak anak usia 4-5 tahun di KB Nurul Ibadah belum secara konsisten mempraktikkan perilaku keagamaan dasar, seperti berdoa sebelum beraktivitas, menyapa orang lain, mengungkapkan rasa syukur, dan menunjukkan sopan santun. Kondisi ini menyoroti kebutuhan akan kegiatan pembelajaran yang menarik dan sesuai dengan karakteristik perkembangan anak usia dini. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi bagaimana kegiatan tepuk tangan dan lagu dapat mendukung perkembangan nilai-nilai agama di kalangan anak usia 4-5 tahun. Studi ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode Aksi Kelas. Partisipan terdiri dari 12 anak yang terdaftar di KB Nurul Ibadah di Desa Antasan Senor Ilir. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi dan dokumentasi serta dianalisis secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengintegrasian kegiatan tepuk tangan dan lagu ke dalam pembelajaran di kelas memberikan kontribusi pada peningkatan yang nyata dalam nilai-nilai agama anak. Sebelum intervensi, sebagian besar partisipan diklasifikasikan sebagai Belum Berkembang, sedangkan pada akhir siklus kedua, mayoritas telah mencapai kategori Berkembang Sesuai Harapan dan Sangat Berkembang. Selain itu, anak-anak menjadi lebih antusias, aktif terlibat dalam pembelajaran, lebih percaya diri, dan secara bertahap terbiasa mempraktikkan nilai-nilai agama dalam rutinitas sehari-hari mereka. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa kegiatan tepuk tangan dan nyanyian memberikan strategi yang efektif dan menyenangkan untuk menumbuhkan nilai-nilai agama pada masa kanak-kanak.

Abstract

Early childhood literacy development is a fundamental aspect of education because the ability to recognize alphabet letters forms the basis for reading and writing skills. However, many kindergarten children still experience difficulties in identifying and pronouncing letters due to limited engagement and monotonous teaching methods. This study aimed to improve children’s learning outcomes in recognizing alphabet letters through the implementation of Student Active Learning (SAL) in Group B students at ABA Sei Besar Kindergarten. The research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design using the Kemmis and McTaggart model conducted in two cycles involving 12 children aged 5–6 years. Data were collected through observation, learning outcome assessments, field notes, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively using percentage techniques. The findings revealed a significant improvement in children’s alphabet recognition skills after the application of SAL. Learning mastery increased from 42% in the pre-action stage to 79.1% in Cycle I and reached 95.1% in Cycle II. Children became more active, motivated, confident, and collaborative during learning activities involving games, group discussions, and hands-on letter recognition tasks. The study concludes that SAL is an effective and engaging approach for improving early childhood literacy outcomes, particularly alphabet recognition. This research contributes to the development of active learning strategies in early childhood education by emphasizing participatory and child-centered literacy instruction.

Abstract

Early childhood is a critical period in which foundational aspects of personality and character are established. This research aims to enhance the independence of early childhood learners through the application of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model in Group A at Raudhatul Athfal Harapan Ibu, Desa Labat Muara, Kecamatan Aluh-Aluh, Kabupaten Banjar. Independence is a crucial aspect of early childhood development, reflecting a child's ability to perform tasks without relying on others. The PjBL model was chosen because it provides meaningful, contextual, and active learning experiences through project activities that directly involve children. The research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consisted of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The subjects were 15 children in Group A, while data were collected through observation, documentation, and field notes. Project activities in Cycle I involved making pencil holders from used cardboard and straws, while Cycle II involved creating pencil holders decorated with flannel fabric. The results indicated a significant increase in children's independence after implementing the PjBL model, as evidenced by the shift in children’s independence categories and improvement in key indicators such as initiative, responsibility, and decision-making. Therefore, it can be concluded that the PjBL model is effective in enhancing independence in early childhood education settings.

Abstract

This classroom action research aimed to improve fine motor skills in children aged 5–6 years old in Group B TK ABA Rahmaniah Banjarbaru through a series of structured handicraft activities. The research was motivated by the observation that most children exhibited underdeveloped fine motor skills, which are essential for daily functioning and school readiness. The intervention consisted of two cycles, each with three sessions, where children created pencil holders from recycled plastic bottles, engaging in cutting, gluing, coloring, and decorating. Data were collected through observation checklists, documentation, and descriptive analysis. The results revealed a significant improvement: children in the "Very Well Developed" category increased from 0% at baseline to 85.7% after the second cycle. The findings confirm that creative handicraft activities provide an effective, enjoyable, and sustainable approach to developing fine motor skills in early childhood. Recommendations are offered for teachers, schools, parents, and future researchers.

Abstract

Vocabulary learning of Arabic for early childhood at TK Handayani Awang Bangkal Barat is an important effort to equip the younger generation with foreign language skills and global insights. This study aims to identify the strategies, approaches, and teaching media applied by teachers in introducing Arabic vocabulary as well as analyzing supporting factors and obstacles encountered during the teaching and learning process. The research method used is qualitative, employing observation and interviews with teachers and students. The findings indicate that teachers use interactive approaches such as educational games, singing, and visual media like flashcards and videos to enhance children’s interest and understanding of the Arabic language. Internal factors such as student motivation and teacher competence, along with external factors like the availability of learning media, play a significant role in the success of vocabulary acquisition. This study recommends the development of enjoyable, adaptive, and age-appropriate teaching methods to improve the effectiveness of Arabic language learning at TK Handayani and other early childhood education institutions.

Abstract

Early childhood education is recognized globally as the most critical period for optimizing holistic child development cognitive, social-emotional, language, and moral. This study aims to describe and analyze the implementation of inclusive education at TK Aisyiyah Ranting V Martapura, focusing on planning, implementation, and evaluation of learning for children with special needs (CWD). The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis employed the Miles and Huberman model, which consists of four stages data reduction, data coding, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that inclusive education planning has been carried out over the past two years but remains limited to administrative aspects, lacking adequate support in the form of Individualized Education Plans (IEPs). Implementation is conducted through collaborative and individual approaches, however, limited facilities and human resources present significant challenges. Evaluation is carried out informally through teacher observations and communication with parents, without standardized formal instruments. The analysis indicates that the success of inclusive education is strongly influenced by teacher commitment, flexibility in teaching approaches, and parental involvement. However, program sustainability requires stronger policy support, specialized training, and collaboration with external experts.
