Abstract

Background: Writing descriptive text remains challenging for many elementary students due to limited vocabulary mastery and difficulties generating ideas. Specific Background: The lack of engaging media in writing lessons often results in low motivation and poor writing structure. Knowledge Gap: Few studies explore the use of picture series in supporting structured descriptive writing within the context of Grade IV students in this school. Aim: This study aims to improve students’ descriptive writing skills through the use of picture series. Methods: This classroom action research consisted of two cycles involving planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through writing tests, observation sheets, and documentation. Results: Students’ writing improved in content, organization, vocabulary, and mechanics across cycles, showing steady progress from the initial baseline to the final cycle. Novelty: This study presents a contextualized application of picture series tailored to the characteristics of Grade IV learners. Implications: Picture series can serve as an accessible and effective visual tool to support structured descriptive writing in elementary classrooms. Highlights:• Picture series improved students’ descriptive writing structure• Increased vocabulary use and idea development• Higher motivation observed during visual-based learning Keywords: Picture Series, Descriptive Writing, Elementary Students, Writing Skills, Visual Media

Abstract

Background: The need to promote student creativity in science learning remains a challenge, particularly in classrooms where teacher-centered instruction still dominates. Specific Background: At SDN Kemiri Sidoarjo, unused plastic bottles accumulate in classrooms, indicating missed opportunities for contextual learning activities. Gap: Previous studies have explored Project Based Learning (PjBL), but limited research integrates PjBL with recycled materials to stimulate creativity in elementary science learning. Aims: This study aims to describe how PjBL using recycled plastic bottles contributes to the creativity of fourth-grade students. Results: Using a pre-experimental One-Shot Case Study design, data from 30 students were collected through structured observation. The findings show an increase in the average creativity score to 59.2%, categorized as “Good Creativity,” indicating a moderate level of improvement across fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Novelty: This research combines PjBL with direct utilization of plastic waste, creating hands-on, environmentally oriented learning that strengthens creativity indicators. Implications: The study provides practical insights for teachers to integrate recycled materials into project-based science activities to foster creativity more effectively. Highlights:• Recycled materials support contextual creativity• PjBL fosters independent project construction• Creativity improves at a moderate level Keywords: Project Based Learning, Creativity, Recycled Materials, Elementary Science, Observation
