Abstract

General Background: Character education plays a pivotal role in shaping students' behavior and mindset, especially in Islamic educational settings. Specific Background: At SMP Muhammadiyah 6 Pucuk Lamongan, concerns have arisen regarding students’ declining discipline, politeness, and moral conduct. Knowledge Gap: Despite numerous studies on character education, limited research addresses the role of muhadharah (religious speech practice) in systematically forming character in junior high school students within Islamic institutions. Aim: This study aims to investigate the implementation of muhadharah activities and analyze the character values cultivated through these practices. Methods and Results: Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving teachers, students, and administrators. The findings indicate that character development through muhadharah follows three stages: insight, engineering, and adaptation. The activities significantly foster bravery, politeness, discipline, cooperation, responsibility, literacy, and broad insight among students. Novelty: This research uniquely highlights muhadharah as an effective Islamic extracurricular framework for character formation, combining religious values with structured developmental stages. Implications: The findings suggest that muhadharah can serve as a replicable model for Islamic character education in other institutions facing similar behavioral challenges. Highlights : Highlights muhadharah as a tool for character development. Uses a structured three-stage formation model. Addresses behavioral issues in Islamic junior high schools Keywords: Character, Muhadharah, Islamic Education, Student Behavior, Extracurricular

Abstract

Sitting endurance in early childhood is a critical aspect of successful classroom learning, particularly as children transition into more structured educational environments. Previous studies have noted that many early learners struggle to remain seated for developmentally appropriate durations, hindering their ability to engage effectively in learning activities. However, limited empirical research has addressed instructional strategies tailored to improve sitting endurance in PAUD (Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini) students. This study aims to investigate the role of the Picture and Picture method, a visually driven and kinesthetic teaching approach, in supporting sitting endurance among early childhood learners. Utilizing a single-subject quantitative quasi-experimental design with an A-B-A framework and interrupted time series, one five-year-old male student was observed under three conditions: pre-intervention, during intervention, and post-intervention. Visual data analysis showed an increase in sitting duration from 7–10 minutes during the baseline to 20–25 minutes post-treatment. The novelty of this study lies in applying the Picture and Picture method not only for cognitive outcomes but also for behavioral endurance. These findings imply that integrating visual-kinesthetic strategies may support behavioral readiness in early learners, offering practical guidance for PAUD educators seeking to prepare children for structured learning environments. Highlight: Supports sitting behavior through visual-kinesthetic learning. Uses single-subject A-B-A experimental design. Offers practical insights for PAUD instructional methods Keyword: Sitting Endurance, Early Childhood Education, Picture and Picture, Visual Learning, Classroom Behavior
