This research is motivated by the importance of mastering teaching skills as a determinant of the success of Indonesian language learning. Teachers are required to master adequate pedagogical competencies to be able to simplify complex literacy materials to make them easier for students to understand. This study aims to describe the implementation of eight teaching skills in Indonesian language learning for grade IV-C students at SDN 147 Pekanbaru. The method used is a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. The research subjects consisted of one homeroom teacher of grade IV-C and three grade IV-C students. Data were collected through non-participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation studies. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the grade IV-C teacher of SDN 147 Pekanbaru has implemented the eight teaching skills well. The teacher is able to awaken students’ mental readiness through prayer, ice breaking, and apperception activities. In explaining the material, the teacher uses simple language so that it is easy for students to understand. The use of questioning skills and providing reinforcement has been proven to be effective in increasing student self-confidence. Teachers also maintained student focus through varied stimuli, such as changing teaching positions, and facilitating group discussions using the deskmate method, while not neglecting individual attention for students requiring special guidance. However, closing skills during evaluation activities were not optimally implemented due to the limited time during the day. Overall, teachers have successfully supported the achievement of Indonesian language learning objectives according to the Merdeka Curriculum standards.
