<![CDATA[This study was motivated by the low reading proficiency of third-grade students at SDN Lamsayuen, Aceh Besar, creating a need for instruction that accommodates varying student abilities. One such approach involves the "Teaching at the right level" (TaRL) method supported by the use of a "spinning wheel" learning aid. The study aims to examine teacher and student activities during the reading improvement process using the TaRL approach with the spinning wheel aid, and to enhance students' reading skills through the implementation of this method. This research employs Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted over two cycles. The subjects of the study were all 11 third-grade students at SDN Lamsayuen. Data collection techniques included observation and reading proficiency tests, and the data were analyzed using descriptive analysis. Results from Cycles I and II showed that teacher activity improved from 63% rated "sufficient" in Cycle I to 90% rated "good" in Cycle II. Student activity similarly improved from 68% sufficient in Cycle I to 93% good in Cycle II. Regarding reading proficiency, 72.72% of students fell into the sufficient category in Cycle I, a figure that rose to 81.81% in the good category by Cycle II. Thus, it can be concluded that implementing the TaRL approach supported by a spinning wheel learning aid effectively improves the reading skills of third-grade students at SDN Lamsayuen, Aceh Besar.]]>
