Abstract

Cognitive ability is one of the essential aspects of early childhood development that must be stimulated through approaches aligned with the children’s developmental stages. This study aims to determine the effect of the storytelling method on the cognitive abilities of children aged 5–6 years. The research employed a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design of the one-group pretest-posttest type. The study involved 14 children from Group B as research subjects. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, using observation sheets, assessment rubrics, and interview guidelines as instruments. The data were analyzed descriptively and inferentially using a paired sample t-test. The results revealed a significant improvement in the aspects of retelling stories, answering questions, and identifying story settings and characters after the implementation of the storytelling method. This improvement was reflected by an increase in the “Very Well Developed” category and a notable decrease in the “Not Yet Developed” category. The t-test results showed a significance value of < 0.05, indicating a significant effect of the storytelling method on children’s cognitive abilities. These findings confirm that the storytelling method is an effective learning approach to actively, enjoyably, and meaningfully stimulate children’s cognitive development in the context of early childhood education.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the role of contextual learning in developing children’s cognitive abilities. The subjects of this research were all 18 children in Group B of Pelita Hati Kindergarten, consisting of 9 boys and 9 girls. The findings revealed that contextual learning played a significant role in enhancing the cognitive development of children in Group B, particularly through the use of spinach as a learning medium. Before the learning activity began, the teacher introduced spinach, explained its parts, and encouraged the children to identify and count them. The teacher then invited the children to play a sorting game by arranging the spinach from the smallest to the largest. Through contextual learning, children were able to interact directly with concrete materials, which supported the early childhood education principle of learning through play and facilitated better understanding. Observations conducted over three weeks showed that contextual learning greatly contributed to children’s cognitive growth, particularly in three key aspects: sequencing, identifying, and counting.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of finger painting activities on the creativity of children in Group B at Efrat Wayura Kindergarten. Using a quantitative descriptive approach, the research involved 15 children and employed observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The findings indicate a clear improvement in children’s creativity after participating in finger painting activities. Initially, many children demonstrated limited creative expression; however, after the intervention, a significant shift occurred, with more children showing higher levels of creative ability, including greater originality, imagination, and confidence in using colors and shapes. These results show that finger painting serves as an effective learning activity for fostering creativity in early childhood.

Abstract

The underdevelopment of children's language is associated with limited interaction during questioning, low engagement, and difficulties pronouncing sentences. This study aimed to improve children’s language development in Adhyaksa XXII Kindergarten by implementing a storytelling method. A classroom action research design following the Kemmis–McTaggart model was conducted across two cycles (four actions) to evaluate the effectiveness of a storytelling method in fostering an engaging, interactive, and imaginative learning environment for language acquisition. Data was collected through several methods, including observation, analysis of work results, checklists, and documentation. The results show that there was an increase in all indicators of children's language development after being given action. The improvement shows in the category of developing very well and developing as expected in cycle 1 by 45%, then there is an increase in cycle II to 80%, so that the increase that occurs is 35%, thus it can be concluded that the storytelling method can improve children's language skills in group B of Adhyaksa XXII Kindergarten in Palu. These findings indicate that storytelling proved an engaging and feasible way to enhance language acquisition.
