Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of role-playing methods on the development of children's social behavior at Mekar Mekarti Kindergarten in Pasangkayu Regency. Social behavior is an important skill that needs to be developed from an early age, including caring, cooperation, and mutual assistance. This study used a quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design, involving 15 children as research subjects. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis was performed statistically using a t-test through the SPSS program. The results showed a significant increase in children's social behavior after being given treatment in the form of role-playing methods. The pretest average score of 4.93 increased to 8.13 on the posttest. In addition, the Not Yet Developed (BB) category, which previously dominated, decreased dramatically to 0% after the treatment, while the Developing as Expected (BSH) and Developing Very Well (BSB) categories increased significantly. The t-test showed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000 < 0.05, which means H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted, so it can be concluded that the role-playing method has a significant effect on children's social behavior. Thus, the role-playing method can be used as an effective learning strategy in developing the social aspects of early childhood.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of natural material collage activities on the fine motor skills of children in group B at Pembina Melati Tondo State Kindergarten. The background of this study stems from the importance of early childhood education in optimizing all aspects of development, including fine motor skills. Collage activities using natural materials were chosen as a learning medium because they are believed to stimulate eye-hand coordination, finger strength, flexibility, and accuracy through activities such as sticking, arranging, and manipulating natural materials. This study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design of the one-group pretest-posttest type. There were 14 children in the study. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using descriptive analysis and the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test non-parametric test. The results of the study showed an increase in fine motor skills after conducting natural material collage activities. The average score for children's abilities increased from 2.10 in the pretest to 3.14 in the posttest. The increase occurred in all aspects, namely strength, finger flexibility, and accuracy. The Wilcoxon test results showed a significance value of 0.005 (< 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the children's abilities before and after the treatment. Thus, collage activities using natural materials have been proven to have a significant and effective influence on improving the fine motor skills of early childhood.
