Abstract

This community service program aimed to strengthen children's literacy skills through a community-based reading aloud model implemented in the “Cerita Minggu Pagi” program. The activity was motivated by the low level of children's reading interest and limited literacy stimulation in both family and community environments. A participatory community-based approach was applied by involving Towaine Mandar as local community, volunteers, and parents in creating a supportive literacy ecosystem. The program was conducted in Desa Baru, Luyo District, Polewali Mandar Regency, with 20–30 children aged 5–12 years participating in each session. The implementation consisted of preparation, execution, and evaluation stages. The main activity involved interactive reading aloud supported by storytelling, discussions, and follow-up activities such as retelling, drawing, and role-playing. Data were collected through participatory observation, informal interviews, and documentation, and were analyzed using a descriptive qualitative approach. The results showed that the program had a positive impact on children's literacy development, including improvements in story comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, speaking skills, and self-confidence. In addition, children demonstrated increased reading interest and active participation during the activities. The use of reading aloud techniques—such as articulation, intonation, pauses, and expression—created an engaging and meaningful learning experience. Furthermore, community involvement contributed significantly to the sustainability of the program.

Abstract

Fine motor skills are essential for childrenÔÇÖs developmental readiness, supporting their ability to perform daily tasks and foundational academic activities. This study aims to improve fine motor skills in early childhood through collage activities using diverse natural materials. Adopting a classroom action research design with the John Elliot model, the research was conducted in two cycles, each comprising three meetings. Eleven children aged 5ÔÇô6 years participated, with data collected via interviews, observations, and documentation, analyzed both descriptively and quantitatively. The findings showed a gradual increase in fine motor skill achievement: 38% of indicators were unmet in the pre-action phase, rising to 62% in the first cycle, and reaching 92% in the second cycle, indicating significant improvement. Activities such as squeezing, tearing, cutting, and pasting natural materials fostered sensory and motor engagement. In conclusion, collage activities with natural materials are effective in enhancing fine motor skills. It is recommended that educators integrate such creative, nature-based approaches to support childrenÔÇÖs motor development.┬á┬á
