Abstract

Cognitive development in early childhood, especially 5 years of age, is an important foundation in forming logical and symbolic thinking skills. Although some children are able to recognize and name various types of plants in their environment, there is still variation in understanding the physical characteristics of plants and their habitats. This study aims to describe the cognitive abilities of 5-year-old children in identifying plant types, recognizing where they grow, and understanding the physical characteristics of plants through a checklist-based assessment approach. The study used a descriptive quantitative method with seven children from five kindergartens in Medan City as subjects. Data were collected through direct observation, interviews, and documentation of children's activities during the learning process. The results of the study showed that most children, namely 85.71%, were in the "Very Well Developed" category. Children were able to group plants based on their type and where they grow, and recognize plant parts such as roots, stems, leaves, and flowers. These findings indicate that the use of checklist-based observation assessment instruments is effective in mapping children's cognitive development more objectively and contextually. This study contributes to the development of early childhood education learning strategies that are more appropriate to children's developmental stages and based on real experiences.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi permasalahan dalam keterampilan motorik halus anak di RA Baiturrahman serta mengevaluasi metode yang dapat meningkatkan keterampilan tersebut melalui kegiatan melipat kertas origami dan meronce. Berdasarkan hasil observasi dan wawancara dengan kepala sekolah, ditemukan bahwa anak-anak masih kurang terampil dalam melipat, menggulung, dan menempel kertasserta meronce dengan benar. Penelitian ini juga memberikan beberapa rekomendasi intervensi untuk meningkatkan keterampilan tersebut, seperti pengulangan kegiatan kreatif secara rutin, penerapan metode bermain sambil belajar, serta pemberian dukungan material yang memadai. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa keterampilan motorik halus dapat ditingkatkan melalui pendekatan yang lebih interaktif dan suportif.
