Abstract

Low narrative writing skills of fifth-grade students at SDN Mulyasari 2, Bayongbong District, Garut Regency. Initial observations indicated that many students had difficulty expressing ideas, determining characters, plot, conflict, and resolution, resulting in short, incoherent, and less engaging stories. This study aimed to analyze the effect of word card media on students’ creative narrative writing skills. A quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design was used, involving 20 students, with a narrative writing test based on Guilford’s creativity indicators and a learning activity observation sheet. The results showed a significant improvement in writing skills, with the average pretest score increasing from 56.75 to 79.75 in the posttest and a t-test significance value of 0.000. Observations also revealed increased student participation, interest, and ability to develop ideas coherently and in detail. These findings indicate that word card media is an effective, simple, and engaging learning tool to enhance narrative writing skills in elementary school students.
