Methods: This study adopted a descriptive quantitative approach with a cross-sectional research design and univariate analysis. A total of 103 first-grade elementary school students participated from five districts in Surakarta City. Participants were selected according to established inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: The results showed that the speech rate of first-grade students ranged between 35 and 118 words per minute and 73 to 267 syllables per minute. The average speech rate was 63 words per minute and 135 syllables per minute. Conclusion: Speech rate of first-grade elementary school students in Surakarta City falls into the moderate or normal category. Therefore, this study can provide preliminary information on first-grade students’ speech rates, which can support speech therapists in identifying and evaluating children’s speech issues, particularly those related to speech fluency, as well as in developing appropriate therapy program plans.

Abstract

Background: Reading accuracy in second grade is a critical foundation for literacy. In second grade, children are in the early stages of learning to read, a critical phase for their future literacy development. This phase is often referred to as learning to read, during which children build the foundations of decoding, fluency, and early comprehension strategies. Objectives: This study aimed to describe the reading accuracy profile of second-grade elementary students, including mean, variation, and score distribution by gender and age. Methods: A quantitative descriptive method was used with 25 students (age 7.1–8.9 years, 48% male, 52% female). The instrument used was the reading subtests of the Indonesian Phonological Awareness Test (IPAT) developed and validated by Wibawati et al. (2025), consisting of three subtests: word reading, non‑word reading, and sentence reading (each score range 0–10). Descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis, frequency distribution) were applied. Results: Results showed very good mean scores (8.16–8.32), high medians (8–10), but moderate standard deviations (2.04–2.56). A total of 60–68% of students achieved the maximum score of 10, but 4% scored 0. The distribution tended to be negatively skewed. No notable differences were found between male and female scores. Conclusion: the majority of students have mastered reading accuracy well, yet variation still exists and a small group with very low scores requires early intervention.
