Abstract

This study investigated linguistic politeness among fifth-grade elementary students at SD Alkhairaat Solonsa through a sociopragmatic lens. Despite the importance of polite language in character formation, students often demonstrate inconsistent adherence to politeness norms in school interactions. This qualitative descriptive study employed purposive sampling to examine students' verbal interactions across various school contexts. Data were collected through naturalistic observation, audio recording, and field notes, then analyzed using Miles and Huberman's interactive model with Brown and Levinson's politeness framework. Results revealed two primary utterance forms: polite utterances employing negative and positive politeness strategies that maintain social harmony, and impolite utterances characterized by face-threatening acts lacking mitigation strategies. Polite language served critical functions including relationship maintenance, conflict avoidance, and respect demonstration. Impoliteness emerged from the interplay of internal factors (limited pragmatic competence, immature emotional regulation) and external factors (family communication patterns, peer influence, school culture). Students demonstrated contextual variability, employing polite strategies with teachers while exhibiting impoliteness with peers. Findings extend politeness theory by demonstrating Brown and Levinson's framework applicability to Indonesian elementary contexts, addressing a significant knowledge gap in primary education politeness research. Practically, results suggest fostering linguistic politeness requires integrated pedagogical approaches combining explicit instruction, teacher modeling, and emotional regulation development alongside linguistic repertoire expansion.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the application of the SQ5R strategy based on audio-visual media in learning to write descriptive texts in grade V of SDN Solonsa. The background of this study is the low ability of students to write descriptive texts in a coherent, interesting, and in accordance with good language rules. The research method used is classroom action research (CAR) which is carried out in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action implementation, observation, and reflection. The subjects of the study were 24 grade V students of SDN Solonsa. Data were collected through observation, interviews, writing tests, and documentation. The results showed that the application of the SQ5R strategy (Survey, Question, Read, Reflect, Recite, Review) based on audio-visual media can improve students' ability to write descriptive texts. In cycle I, the average writing score of students reached 72 with a learning completeness of 66.7%, while in cycle II it increased to an average of 86 with a learning completeness of 91.7%. Audio-visual media helps students understand objects concretely, while the SQ5R steps guide students to think systematically in the writing process. Thus, it can be concluded that the implementation of the SQ5R strategy based on audio-visual media is effective in improving the descriptive text writing skills of fifth-grade students at Solonsa Elementary School. This strategy can be recommended as an alternative for engaging and meaningful writing learning in elementary schools.

Abstract: This study aims to develop Indonesian language teaching materials on exposition texts based on local wisdom for fifth-grade students of SDN Siumbatu and to examine their feasibility, practicality, and effectiveness. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, which consists of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. The research subjects were 30 fifth-grade students in the 2025/2026 academic year. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, expert validation, and pretest–posttest assessments. The material expert validation result reached 86% and the media expert validation reached 84%, both categorized as highly feasible. Students’ responses showed an average percentage of 89% in the very good category. The effectiveness analysis indicated an increase in the mean score from 62.40 in the pretest to 83.20 in the posttest, with an N-Gain score of 0.55 categorized as moderate. These findings demonstrate that the developed local wisdom-based exposition text teaching materials are feasible, practical, and effective in improving elementary students’ exposition writing skills. The integration of local wisdom makes learning more contextual, meaningful, and relevant to students’ daily lives.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has transformed online games into new spaces for social interaction among children, including elementary school students. One of the most popular online games is Free Fire, which provides real-time communication features through voice chat and text chat. Such interactions potentially encourage language use that deviates from norms of politeness. This study aims to describe the forms of linguistic impoliteness and to identify the factors influencing impolite language use among upper-grade students at SDN Kurisa in their engagement with the online game Free Fire. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach within a pragmatic framework. The data consisted of students' utterances collected through voice chat recordings, screenshots of in-game text chats, classroom and field observations, and semi-structured interviews with students, teachers, and parents. Data analysis was conducted using Culpeper's theory of impoliteness, encompassing strategies such as bald on record impoliteness, positive impoliteness, negative impoliteness, sarcasm or mock politeness, and withhold politeness. The findings indicate that students frequently produced impolite utterances in the form of insults, profanity, direct commands without mitigation, sarcastic remarks, and the use of harsh slang and gaming jargon. These practices were influenced by internal factors, including limited emotional control and insufficient awareness of politeness norms, as well as external factors such as the competitive nature of the game, peer group influence, and weak social control in digital environments. The study also reveals a tendency for language practices from the gaming context to transfer into everyday school interactions. This research contributes to pragmatic studies on impoliteness in children's digital communication and offers practical implications for teachers and parents in fostering polite language use in the digital era.
