<![CDATA[Reading ability is one of the important aspects of learning in elementary school. Reading is also a language skill that must be mastered at the beginning of education, namely the elementary school level. This study aims to improve students' initial reading ability through the reading wheel media. This study is based on the low initial reading ability of grade I students at SDN 1 Tamanrejo. The research subjects were 24 students. This study used a classroom action research (CAR) approach, developed by Kemmis and Mc Taggart. Which consists of 4 stages: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Data collection techniques include documentation, interviews, observations, and tests. Data validity was tested by triangulation of sources and methods. The achievement indicator in the study is said to be successful if the student's ability score has reached 80%, then the study must be stopped. The results of the study show that the use of the reading wheel media successfully improves teacher skills, student activities, and students' initial reading abilities. This is evidenced by the acquisition of cognitive results in cycle I, as many as 15 students with a percentage of 62.5% were able to complete the KKTP, while in cycle II it increased by 24 students with a percentage of 100% were able to complete the KKTP. Student activity in cycle I obtained an average score of 18 with a good category and in cycle II there was an increase again with an average score of 21 including the very good category. Meanwhile, it can be seen that teacher skills in cycle I obtained a score of 17 with a good category, and in cycle II there was an increase again with a score of 19 in the very good category.
