Abstract

Literacy is one way to build and develop children's thinking skills that are important for students. However, students' literacy habits are still low. Therefore, schools as one of the three educational centers should implement a literacy culture to improve children's thinking skills. This study aims to examine information about the application of literacy culture in schools and to apply literacy using children's stories for students. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with a survey method. The subjects of this study were elementary school students. Data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and concluding. The results showed that literacy activities in schools had been implemented with literacy fifteen minutes before the lesson started and used every corner of the school as a reading corner, while the implementation of literacy using storybooks was done by inviting students to read books with various story titles. Based on these results, it can be concluded that elementary schools already have a good literacy program and the application of literacy using storybooks can invite students to retell the story content and the moral values of the story. This research implies that schools should optimize their role as one of the three educational centers to build and develop literacy habits for elementary school students.

Abstract

Early reading skills constitute fundamental competencies for academic success and societal participation, yet significant proportions of elementary students encounter substantial barriers in mastering these critical abilities. This study investigated the effectiveness of picture letter card media on early reading learning for lower-grade elementary students. An experimental study with quantitative approach was conducted at SD Inpres Tala-tala, involving 23 first-grade students (13 males, 10 females) selected through saturation sampling. The intervention comprised six sessions: one pretest, four picture letter card treatment sessions, and one posttest. Data collection utilized reading ability tests, observation sheets, and documentation. Statistical analysis employed descriptive statistics and paired-samples t-tests using SPSS, with preliminary normality and homogeneity testing. Teacher implementation quality improved progressively from 2.5 to 3.8 (average 3.2, good category), while student engagement increased from 1.6 to 3.7 (average 2.8, good category). Reading performance demonstrated remarkable improvement from pretest mean of 34.78 to posttest mean of 86.9. Score distribution shifted dramatically, with 91% of students achieving good or very good performance levels in posttest compared to 0% in pretest. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences (p = 0.000 < 0.05), with normality (p = 0.083) and homogeneity (p = 0.680) assumptions satisfied. The substantial 150% improvement validates picture letter card media's effectiveness in addressing foundational literacy challenges. Results align with multimedia learning theory and previous visual media research, demonstrating successful integration of pedagogical content knowledge with accessible educational technology.
