<![CDATA[Beginning reading ability is an essential foundation for elementary school students, particularly those in lower grades, in supporting their future learning success. However, there are still students who experience difficulties in recognizing letters and reading syllables, words, and simple sentences. These problems are influenced by the use of less varied learning models and the limited utilization of interactive learning media. Therefore, an innovative learning approach is needed to enhance students’ engagement and learning motivation, one of which is the implementation of the Scramble learning model assisted by Wordwall.This study aims to determine the effect of the Scramble learning model assisted by Wordwall on the beginning reading ability of first-grade students at SD Negeri 1 Pagar Air Aceh Besar.
