<![CDATA[The results of the 2022 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) show that Indonesia's reading literacy score is only 359 points, far below the OECD average of 476 points. Similar problems were also found at Kaiwatu Christian Elementary School, particularly among fourth-grade students who had difficulty understanding the content of the reading material, determining the main ideas, and retelling the content of the text they had read. This study aims to improve the reading literacy of fourth-grade students at Kaiwatu Christian Elementary School through the application of the Cooperative Learning model. This study uses the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method, which is carried out in two cycles, including the planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The research subjects were 17 fourth-grade students at Kaiwatu Christian Elementary School in Southwest Maluku Regency. The research instruments used included tests and observation sheets with data collection techniques through observation, tests, and documentation. The success indicator was set at a minimum of 75% of students achieving a score of 65 according to the KKTP standard. The results of the study indicate that the application of the Cooperative Learning model can significantly improve students' reading literacy. At the beginning of the pre-cycle, the average score of students was only 60 with a mastery rate of 18% or 3 students. In Cycle I, the average score remained at 60, but the number of students in the “Poor” category decreased from 35% to 12%. A significant improvement occurred in Cycle II, with the average score increasing to 80 and the mastery rate reaching 100% or 17 students. The improvement was comprehensive, covering cognitive, psychomotor, and affective aspects. It can be concluded that the application of the Cooperative Learning model is proven to be effective in improving the reading literacy of fourth-grade students at Kaiwatu Christian Elementary School ABSTRAK Hasil Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) tahun 2022 menunjukkan bahwa skor literasi membaca Indonesia hanya mencapai 359 poin, jauh di bawah rata-rata negara OECD sebesar 476 poin.
