The Indonesian curriculum is considered to have too many subjects. Indonesian students also do not focus on mastering the expected competencies. Finally, Indonesia has always failed in the international level assessment of PISA during its implementation. In fact, it is stated that Indonesian students need one hundred years to match the sophistication level of students' thinking from the average student of PISA participating countries if Indonesia continue to use the same education. The OECD as the organizer of PISA encourages changes in the education system for Indonesia in order to improve the quality of international-class education. One of the concerns in Indonesian education is the burden of many subjects. The purpose of this study is to describe several arguments for simplifying the curriculum and reducing the subjects in elementary schools in improving the quality of Indonesian education based on expert opinion, research and experience of educational performance in other countries. This article is a position paper to scientifically strengthen an opinion. Qualitative methods are used in this study where data are compiled, analyzed, and concluded. The results of the study indicate that curriculum simplification is necessary to focus students' competence and improve the quality of education. This study proposes several arguments that strengthen this effort, namely not all curriculum content must be a subject, cognate curriculum content can be integrated, many subjects become a burden on students, and so on. So, with this argument it will strengthen the desire to simplify the curriculum in elementary schools.

Writing is an essential aspect of language learning and for the language skills needs of elementary school students. However, the self-efficacy of elementary school teachers towards teaching writing is known by little. Teachers' self-efficacy towards teaching writing affects their perceptions and judgments, influencing instructional decisions during student learning activities. This study aimed to describe elementary school teachers’ self-efficacy in teaching writing in the classroom. This research was completed by a quantitative approach with a survey method of 13 elementary school teachers. The research’s results indicate that the self-efficacy of elementary school teachers on writing lessons is still not optimal. Almost all teachers (11 out of 13) were at the 61-70% self-efficacy in teaching writing. 1 out of 13 teachers has achieved 60% self-efficacy in learning to write along with the percentage of self-efficacy of elementary school teachers in teaching writing. And only one teacher who has a level of > 70% self-efficacy in learning to write. Changing writing practice in elementary school will require individualized instructional methods to meet student needs as well as the personal assessment of self-efficacy to ensure that beliefs do not hinder the delivery of effective instructional writing practices.

One aspect that is seriously affected by the COVID-19 pandemic is the continuity of education's teaching and learning process, especially in the initial reading. This study explores initial reading teaching activities, which are currently mainly carried out virtually in terms of virtual platforms used, methods, learning resources, the conveniences, and obstacles faced by the teachers in several schools. The research method used was a Survey with a cross-sectional survey design. Research data was obtained online by using google form media. The respondents involved in this study were 18 elementary school teachers who taught in the lower grades and came from 18 different elementary schools. The results showed that in teaching and learning initial reading virtually, the platform used was WhatsApp video call, the most widespread method used was the syllable method, and the most widely used learning resource was textbooks provided by the school. The convenience faced by teachers when carrying out virtual reading lessons is the availability of flexible time in teaching activities. In contrast, the limited teaching time, the unstable internet connections, and the limitations of the facilities also infrastructure owned by parents become the obstacles to the virtual initial reading learning process.

Waste management can be completed if humans have a sense of responsibility for the environment, an understanding of environmental conservation is called ecological intelligence (Ecoliteracy). The purpose of this study was to describe the ecoliteracy awareness of elementary school students in waste management. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. This study uses several data collection techniques including, questionnaires (questionnaires), interviews (interviews), and documentation. The participants in this study were five 3rd grade teachers and 26 3rd grade elementary school students. Documentation was conducted by analyzing two books concerning waste management. Data processing is done by analyzing the results of data collection and then describing to get a picture of the awareness of elementary school students in waste management. The results of the study show that: 1) from the interviews, it is known that the teacher has instilled an awareness of ecoliteracy in learning or outside of learning, but has never practiced recycling; 2) the results of the questionnaire show that students already have good knowledge of waste management, but their application is still lacking, and 3) the results of the documentation show that in the 3rd-grade books there are already quite complete waste management materials, but there are no student worksheets for making recycling projects. Ecolitercy awareness of elementary school students in waste management needs to be continuously instilled to form a generation that has environmental intelligence.
