This research is a descriptive qualitative study with data sources consisting of lower-grade thematic teachers at MI Salafiyah Kutukan. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation techniques. The research instruments used were observation guidelines, in-depth interview guidelines, and documentation guidelines. Data analysis was conducted through three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the qualitative descriptive analysis indicate that teacher mastery of thematic learning has not been well mastered and implemented by teachers at the school. The obstacles faced by teachers in the thematic learning process include a lack of ability to integrate subjects thematically, limited variation in learning methods, and insufficient classroom management skills.

Abstract

The management of the learning focus of low-grade students at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI) is often a complex challenge due to the limitations of attention spans and crowded classroom dynamics. This qualitative research with a single case study design was conducted to explore in depth the implementation of the team teaching approach in managing the learning focus of Class II students at MI Unggulan Al Muhammad Cepu. Data were collected through participant observation over 16 meetings, in-depth interviews with two team teachers and six students, and analysis of lesson planning documents. The objectives of the study are to (1) identify the mechanism of applying the team teaching model, (2) analyze its impact on the pattern and duration of learning focus (time-on-task), and (3) explore the perception of teachers and students. The results of the study revealed that team teaching develops into a dynamic pedagogical symphony supported by three core mechanisms: collaborative planning with role scenarios, non-verbal microcognitive communication, and hierarchical responsiveness. This implementation succeeded in increasing time-on-task from thirty-five percent to eighty percent 80% and transformed the focus pattern from fragmented to sustained attention, while creating a learning ecosystem that is cognitively efficient and psychologically safe for students. These findings offer a practical model of collaborative learning management in the early classroom that is holistic and contextual.
