Abstract

Since elementary school, all students must master basic literacy, which includes the ability to read, write, and count, also known as calistung. This research aims to explain how the literacy and numeracy mentoring program is used to improve the basic literacy of elementary school students in Bugis Tua Village. This activity uses the Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. One research model that attempts to connect research with social change is participatory action research. The results of this study indicate that implementing calistung activities for 12 days can help children's development. Children can learn to read, starting from spelling letters to words. On the other hand, children are able to distinguish between vowels and consonants, dictate letters, and recognize punctuation in every piece of writing. They can memorize multiplication and are proficient in addition. This study concludes that the Calistung (reading, writing, and arithmetic) mentoring program aimed at strengthening basic literacy skills of elementary school students in Bugis Tua Village, Indramayu, has proven to have a positive impact on improving children's basic skills, both through school learning activities and additional guidance sessions.
