Abstract

The phenomenon of reading difficulties in upper elementary school students needs a solution. Moreover, the upper elementary school curriculum contains theories and concepts that require students' good reading skills. This study aims to analyze the types, causes, and impacts of reading difficulties in fourth-grade elementary school students. This qualitative study uses a phenomenological approach. Primary data consists of teachers and five fourth-grade students who have reading difficulties. Secondary data are journals and books as a theoretical basis. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using qualitative analysis techniques. The results of the study showed (1) the types of students' reading difficulties are not recognizing letters, not being able to identify words, not being fluent in reading aloud, not understanding the meaning of the text, and not being able to listen to reading, (2) The factors causing students' reading difficulties are family factors, lack of interest and motivation to read, and students' intelligence levels. (3) The reading difficulties experienced by students have a significant impact on students' academic, psychological, and social interactions. This study has implications for the importance of teachers understanding the characteristics of students in "reading" learning. This understanding greatly determines the direction of learning related to methods, strategies, techniques, tactics, and teaching styles.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation process and prove the effectiveness of improving the speaking skills of children aged 4–5 years in Group A at TK Islam Al-Fath Makassar through the utilization of flashcard media (picture cards). The background of the problem is based on initial observations indicating low ability to respond to teachers' verbal stimulation, minimal two-way communication, limited vocabulary, and weak oral articulation among children due to conventional and monotonous language learning models. The approach used is Classroom Action Research (CAR) following the Kemmis and McTaggart adaptive spiral model, conducted in two cycles, where each cycle includes the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The research subjects involved 15 preschool children (7 boys and 8 girls). Data were collected through a combination of structured observation techniques and performance assessments, which were then analyzed using quantitative descriptive statistics and the interactive model of qualitative analysis. The results of the intervention demonstrate a significant acceleration in the children's expressive language competency achievement. At the end of Cycle I, the class's average oral ability score only reached 2.02 (Starting to Develop category) due to the dominance of one-way classical instruction. However, after implementing tactical reconstruction based on Developmentally Appropriate Practice (DAP) principles in Cycle II, the average class speaking skill score jumped drastically to 3.72 (Developing Very Well category). Performance improvements were consistently recorded in the aspects of fluency, vocabulary expansion, logical sentence structure composition, and the children's confidence and courage. The study concludes that the interactive-participatory operationalization of flashcards is highly effective in boosting early childhood speaking skills.

Abstract

This study aims to improve early childhood artistic skills through the structured implementation of creative dance activities in Group B at TK Bilingual MICI Al Basit. The background of the research is based on empirical conditions in the field indicating rigid and monotonous art learning, which results in low kinesthetic coordination and aesthetic expression among children. The method used in this study is Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles based on the Kemmis and McTaggart model. Each cycle encompasses four procedural stages: planning, action execution through guided demonstration strategies, observation, and reflection. The research subjects consisted of seven children aged 5–6 years. Data collection techniques were conducted holistically using structured observation sheets and authentic documentation, while data analysis applied a qualitative descriptive approach alongside simple quantitative analysis. The results of the study show a significant and gradual improvement in the children's artistic skills. In the initial condition (pre-action), the children's classical mastery percentage was only 14.28%. After the intervention was provided in Cycle I, the mastery percentage increased to 42.85%. Culminating at the end of Cycle II, the classical mastery percentage soared sharply to reach 85.71%, with the majority of children successfully shifting into the Developing as Expected (BSH) and Developing Very Well (BSB) categories. Qualitatively, the children were able to harmoniously synchronize body movements with the tempo of the music, demonstrate expressive flexibility, and exhibit high self-confidence when performing in groups. Based on these findings, it is concluded that the implementation of play-based creative dance is proven effective in holistically improving early childhood artistic skills and is suitable as an alternative art learning model in early childhood education institutions.

Abstract

This Classroom Action Research (CAR) is motivated by the low basic science skills of Group B children at TK Asmaul Husnah, which is caused by the dominance of passive, memorization-oriented learning. This study aims to significantly improve early childhood basic science skills through the implementation of color-mixing activities utilizing watercolor media. The research design adopts the Kemmis and McTaggart spiral model conducted in two cycles, where each cycle encompasses the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The research subjects consisted of 15 children in Group B (aged 5–6 years). Data collection techniques were carried out through triangulation, combining structured observations, child development assessment sheets, and documentation. The collected data were analyzed using comparative descriptive analysis techniques to measure the percentage of classical mastery. The results showed a highly significant increase in the children's basic science skills at each stage of the action. The children's classical mastery percentage soared sharply from the initial condition (Pre-Cycle) at 0%, increased to 40.0% (6 children mastered) at the end of Cycle I, and peaked at 93.4% (14 children mastered) at the end of Cycle II. Through a guided inquiry approach, the children were not only able to conduct experiments independently and accurately identify physical color changes, but their explanatory language skills were also stimulated in explaining the cause-and-effect relationship of the formation process of new colors. Based on these empirical findings, it is concluded that color-mixing experimental activities with watercolor media are proven to be highly effective in boosting children's basic science literacy and are recommended as an active learning model in early childhood education institutions.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze in depth the implementation of the habituation of religious, moral, and social values ??through storytelling activities in early childhood at Aisyiyah Busthanul Athfal Nahung Kindergarten, Maros Regency. The decline in children's ethics and morality in the modern era is a fundamental challenge that underlies the importance of using interactive and fun narrative methods in early childhood education institutions. The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative. Data collection was carried out through technical triangulation which included passive participatory observation of children's daily behavior, in-depth interviews with the principal and class teachers of group B, and a study of daily curriculum documentation. Data analysis was carried out in a flowing manner using the Miles and Huberman model consisting of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that storytelling activities are a very effective pedagogical instrument for transforming abstract concepts into concrete behavior. Religious values ??were successfully internalized through the introduction of exemplary Islamic stories that encourage the habituation of daily worship. Moral values ??in the form of honesty and discipline were formed through the process of children's self-identification with the conflicts of the characters in the stories. Meanwhile, children's social values ??experience significant development, moving from an egocentric to a sociocentric orientation, marked by increased empathy and group cooperation in the classroom. The success of this method is largely determined by the consistency of story repetition (habituation), the variety of media used, and the educator's expressive competence in conveying the story's wisdom without appearing patronizing.

Abstract

This research was motivated by the low social-emotional skills of children aged 5-6 years at TK Riffat Ummul Mukminin, which were characterized by egocentric behavior, difficulty in sharing, and unstable emotional control due to exposure to individualistic digital technology. The primary objective of this study was to improve children's social-emotional skills through the implementation of cooperative play activities. The method employed was a collaborative Classroom Action Research (CAR) following the Kemmis and McTaggart model, consisting of two cycles with stages of planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. The research subjects comprised 15 children in Group B. Data collection techniques were conducted through systematic observation, documentation, and interviews, using an observation sheet as the instrument to measure indicators of cooperation, mutual assistance, compliance with rules, and sharing ability. The results showed a significant behavioral transformation at each stage. In the pre-cycle condition, the average social-emotional skill of the children only reached 35% (Not Developed category). After the intervention in Cycle I, the percentage increased to 55.75% (Starting to Develop category). Culminating in Cycle II, the children's skills escalated dramatically, reaching a classical average of 83.75% (Very Well Developed category), thereby exceeding the established success indicator of 80%. These findings prove that cooperative play through role-playing strategies, group games, and the use of constructive media is effectively capable of reducing egocentric traits, building empathy, and training children's self-regulation optimally. The conclusion of this study confirms that cooperative play activities constitute a valid learning strategy to develop early childhood interpersonal intelligence in the school environment.
