<![CDATA[This study aimed to analyze teacher strategies for integrating worship values through the local content subject of Worship Practice at SD Swasta Nur Adia, Deli Serdang Regency. The study focused on the learning process, teacher strategies, and supporting and inhibiting factors. A qualitative approach with a case study method was employed. Data were collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively to provide an in-depth understanding of practices in the field. The findings revealed that Worship Practice had transformed from a conventional theoretical approach into Learning by Doing and guided demonstrations by utilizing the school mosque (musala) as a spiritual laboratory. Teachers integrated worship values through five main strategies: role modeling, structured habituation through congregational prayers and collective supplications, spiritual motivation through persuasive approaches and inspirational stories, positive reinforcement through appreciation, and active participation through a worship duty roster. These strategies successfully internalized discipline, cleanliness, and responsibility among students at school and home. Supporting factors included the foundation’s commitment, adequate facilities, a religious school culture, and the effectiveness of the worship monitoring book as communication with parents. Obstacles included technological distractions from mobile devices at home and a high student-to-teacher ratio. Teachers addressed these challenges through personal counseling, consistent habituation, and stronger partnerships with parents. The study recommends continuity between school supervision and parental guidance to sustain students’ religious character and strengthen the consistency of worship values in students’ daily lives.]]>
