Abstract

The reading ability of beginner students at SD Negeri Lamklat is still low. In a reading lesson, they can name the letters of the alphabet in the reading sequence from A to Z. However, if the letters are scrambled, most students cannot remember how to pronounce the letters correctly. Apart from that, their pronunciation and intonation when reading are also inappropriate. Therefore, this research aims to determine the influence of the Picture and Picture learning model to improve the beginning reading skills of grade I students at SD Negeri Lamklat, Kabupaten Aceh Besar. The research method used is the One Group Pre-test-Post-test Design of Pre-Experiment. The sample of this study was 22 grade 1 students. An oral pre-test and post-test were used to collect the data. Completion of the initial reading ability test results is carried out using statistical tests with a significance level of 0.05 and using the percentage formula. The results of the research show that the use of pictures and pictures influences the students' ability. After testing, it is found that t-test = 4.395 and t-table = 1.721. Thus, t-test ≥ t-table or 4.395 > 1.721. Therefore, it can be concluded that the hypothesis in this research (Ha) is accepted. In addition, the average score for the pre-test was 51.363 and the post-test was 91.363. Thus, the finding shows that there is an impact of the use of the Picture and Picture learning model in developing the initial reading ability of the students.

Abstract

Classroom management ensures optimal teaching and learning processes, especially in thematic learning. Teachers often face challenges requiring specific coping strategies, particularly because students are still young. This study describes the strategies and challenges teachers face in classroom management during thematic learning at an Islamic Elementary School in Banda Aceh. The researchers used observation sheets and interview lists to guide this qualitative research. The findings revealed that the classroom management strategies employed by second-grade teachers at the school include weekly reorganization of student seating arrangements, engaging students through question-and-answer sessions and games, classroom administration by designing lesson plans (RPP), taking attendance, providing a reading corner, ensuring availability of trash bins, keeping student personality notes, and implementing rewards and punishments. The challenges teachers face in managing the classroom during thematic learning include internal factors such as student motivation and psychological conditions and external factors such as the teacher's proficiency in designing lesson plans that integrate available learning media and facilities.Keywords: Strategy,  Challenge, Classroom management, Thematic learning

Abstract

Post-disaster school conditions present complex challenges for English teachers, including damaged infrastructure, limited learning resources, and diverse student learning needs. In response to these challenges, a community service program in the form of a seminar was conducted for disaster-affected communities, including teachers in general and English teachers in particular, in Pidie Jaya, Aceh. This article aims to provide pedagogical reflections and recommendations on how English teachers can implement differentiated instruction in post-disaster school settings. Drawing on theories of differentiated instruction, post-disaster education, and English language teaching, this article outlines practical strategies for adapting teaching methods, materials, and media to students’ readiness, interests, and learning profiles. Rather than reporting empirical outcomes, this paper emphasizes conceptual guidance and professional recommendations derived from the seminar content and discussions. The article contributes to community capacity building by offering a flexible instructional framework that supports teaching continuity and educational resilience in post-disaster contexts.
