This study aims to improve the reading literacy skills of sixth grade students of SDN 101901 on recount text material in Indonesian Language subjects through the application of the Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD) Cooperative Learning model. This type of research is Classroom Action Research (CAR) which refers to the Kemmis and Mc Taggart model, implemented in two cycles, with each cycle consisting of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects of the study were 20 sixth grade students of SDN 101901. Data were collected through reading comprehension ability tests, observation sheets of student and teacher activities, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the application of the STAD model can improve the reading literacy skills of recount text comprehension, marked by an increase in the average value from the pre-cycle condition to cycle I and cycle II, as well as an increase in the percentage of student learning completeness that reaches the minimum completeness criteria (KKM). In addition, student learning activities and motivation in group activities also increased. Based on these results, the STAD type Cooperative Learning learning model has proven to be effective and can be recommended as an alternative learning model to improve reading literacy and understanding of recount texts in elementary schools.
