Abstract

This research was conducted at DAKAR Early Childhood Education (PAUD) in Cilegon City, Banten, with the aim of determining the application of the singing method to improve early reading skills in children aged 4-5 years. Initial observations revealed that during learning activities, only a few children recognized letters and words, while the majority did not yet. Therefore, to assess the reading abilities of these young children, it is necessary to develop more engaging and effective learning methods to improve their understanding of letters during the early reading stage, including singing while introducing letters and words. The research methodology was descriptive qualitative, as the researcher aimed to describe or elaborate on an event by conducting in-depth research related to the research topic. The results of the study, through data collection through direct observation, interviews, and documentation, concluded that the implementation of the singing method was highly effective in improving early reading skills in children aged 4-5 years. Evidenced by the use of the singing method, children listened to the alphabet song sung with enthusiasm, repeated the vowel and consonant sounds requested by the teacher, imitated the pronunciation of letters A to Z, increased their vocabulary for communication, and developed their speaking skills.

Abstract

Birrul Walidain Gondangrejo Kindergarten, East Lampung, is an early childhood education institution that seeks to develop all aspects of child development, especially children's cognitive abilities through the use of concrete and interactive learning media. To optimize learning, it is necessary to add media with a new model so that the available teaching media is more maximal and varied. In this study, the "Magic Drawer" media was developed, where the term "magic" philosophically refers to a media that is able to foster curiosity, provide an interesting learning experience, and present educational surprises that stimulate the thinking skills of children aged 4-5 years. This research aims to develop plywood media into a "Magic Drawer" and find out its effectiveness in improving the cognitive abilities of children aged 4-5 years. The method used is Research and Development (R&D) with a 4D (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate) model. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of validation by material experts and media experts show that the "Magic Drawer" media is very suitable for use in early childhood learning. Trials limited to children aged 4-5 years showed an increase in cognitive abilities, such as recognizing colors, shapes, numbers, and the ability to group and think logically. Based on the results of quantitative and qualitative data analysis, the "MagicDrawer" media is effective and interesting to use in learning activities. Thus, plywood-based learning media developed into a "Magic Drawer" can be used as an alternative educational media to support the optimal improvement of children's cognitive abilities.

Abstract

This study aims to develop and test the effectiveness of Creative House Educational Play Tools (APE) in improving the cognitive abilities of children aged 5–6 years. The method used is Research and Development (R&D) with the Borg and Gall model which is simplified into seven stages, including potential and problem analysis, data collection, product design, expert validation, revision, limited trial, and final revision. The subjects of the study were 12 children aged 5–6 years at RA Miftahut Tholibin Sukadana Jaya with saturated sampling techniques, and involved teachers, school principals, media experts, and material experts as validators. The results of the study showed that APE Rumah Kreatif is feasible and effective in improving children's cognitive abilities, shown by a significant increase from the category of Not Yet Developed to Start Developing, Developing as Expected, to Developing Very Well after the use of media. In addition, children become more active, enthusiastic, and able to understand symbolic concepts better through play activities. Thus, APE Rumah Kreatif is proven to be an innovative learning medium that is able to create active, interactive, and fun learning and contribute to the development of early childhood cognitive abilities based on play-based learning.
