Abstract

Instilling an environmentally conscious character from an early age is an important step in shaping a generation that is responsible toward nature. However, the implementation of learning that integrates digital media and hands-on practice in early childhood education still needs further study. This research aims to enhance children's understanding and skills in distinguishing between organic and inorganic waste thru educational video media and direct practice. At the same time, it aims to develop teachers' competencies in implementing the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project at TK Hidayatul Mubtadiin. The method used is descriptive with a simple mixed-method approach thru field studies. Data were collected thru observation, interviews, and documentation of project activities. The project was carried out by presenting educational videos about the impact of littering, solutions for protecting the environment, and how to dispose of organic and inorganic waste. The subjects of the study were 22 kindergarten B children who participated in waste sorting practices based on the color of the trash bins. The research results show that 19 out of 22 children (86.4%) successfully separated organic and inorganic waste correctly, while 3 children (13.6%) experienced difficulties. This research indicates that learning thru educational videos and hands-on practice can enhance children's understanding and ability in waste sorting, as well as support the development of an environmentally conscious character in early childhood.

Abstract

Purpose – Gross motor readiness is an important but often undervalued aspect of children’s transition from early childhood education to primary school. Although song-and-movement activities are widely used in Indonesian PAUD settings, their effects on children’s gross motor readiness are still rarely tested through structured intervention and standardized indicators. This study therefore examined the effectiveness of a structured song-and-movement intervention on gross motor development among preschool children during the transition to primary school. Design/methods/approach – A pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was used with 16 children aged 5–6 years in a PAUD institution in Karanganyar, Indonesia. The intervention was conducted over 8 weeks in 16 sessions using the “Aramsamsam” song-and-movement activity. Gross motor skills were assessed through five indicators: balance, strength, agility, coordination, and flexibility. Data were analysed using Shapiro-Wilk and paired-samples t-test. Findings – Children’s mean gross motor score increased from 8.81 (SD = 2.316) at pretest to 14.75 (SD = 3.088) at post-test. The difference was statistically significant (t = -20.102, df = 15, p < .001), with a very large effect size (Cohen’s d = 5.026; Hedges’ g = 4.899). The largest gains were found in coordination (1.43) and balance (1.37). Research implications/limitations – The findings suggest that structured rhythm-based movement activities may enhance motor readiness during school transition. However, the absence of a control group limits causal interpretation. Further randomized studies are recommended. Practical implications – Structured rhythm-based movement activities can be incorporated into early childhood classrooms as a playful strategy to support children’s motor readiness for school transition. Originality/value – This study contributes empirical evidence from Indonesia on the role of rhythm-structured song-and-movement activities in enhancing specific gross motor domains during the transition to primary school.
