Abstract

Listening comprehension (maharah istima’) is a foundational skill in Arabic language learning, particularly for beginner-level students in Islamic boarding schools. However, traditional teaching methods that rely heavily on textbooks and lectures often fail to engage students or support the development of effective listening skills. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of animated video-based learning media in enhancing students' listening abilities in Grade 1 of the Intensive Program at TMI Al-Amien Prenduan. Using a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study design, data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that the integration of animated videos significantly improves students’ auditory comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, pronunciation accuracy, and learning motivation. Contextual visuals paired with clear audio narration help students better understand Arabic conversations and imitate appropriate expressions and intonations. Furthermore, students exhibit increased engagement, confidence, and active participation during learning sessions. These results affirm the pedagogical value of animated videos as an innovative and effective medium for developing listening skills in Arabic, particularly within the unique educational environment of pesantren. The study recommends the broader implementation of digital multimedia in Arabic curricula to support more engaging and effective language acquisition.

Abstract

Children’s faith education is a fundamental element in shaping character and belief. However, the abstract nature of aqidah concepts often poses challenges in the learning process. This study aims to analyze the urgency and application of the Amtsal fil Qur’an method as an effective approach in teaching aqidah to children, with a specific focus on Surah Ibrahim: 24–25. This approach offers a way to translate abstract values into concrete visualizations that are easier for children to understand. The study uses a descriptive-analytical method with a qualitative approach. The findings show that the use of Amsal, such as the parable of the kalimah tayyibah likened to a good tree, provides a powerful illustration of strong faith, ongoing good deeds, and noble character. The study concludes that Amtsal fil Qur’an is a relevant and effective method for teaching aqidah to children. Despite some challenges in its implementation, this approach holds great potential in shaping a generation with firm belief and good character. This research offers a valuable contribution to the development of Islamic teaching methods, particularly in aqidah education, and is expected to serve as a useful reference for educators.

Abstract

The ability to recognize the letters of the alphabet is one of the fundamental aspects in the development of early childhood literacy. This research is based on the results of observations by researchers in the field who show that recognizing the alphabet letters of children aged 4-5 years at TK As Shofa, Jambi City has not developed optimally. Based on the initial findings, it is known that out of 16 children, as many as 11 children are not optimal in recognizing the letters of the alphabet. This study aims to find out the extent of the influence of the use of smart box media in improving the ability to recognize the alphabet in children aged 4-5 years. This study uses a quantitative approach with an experimental method, adopting a Pre -Experimental design with the One Group Pretest-Posttest Design model. The study population is group A children at TK As Shofa which totals 16 people, with sampling techniques using the saturated sampling method. The instrument used was in the form of an observation sheet, while the data analysis was carried out by hypothesis test using a paired samples test. The test results showed that the calculated t value of 25.564 was greater than the t of table 2.131 at the significance level of α = 0.05. This means that the use of smart box media has an effect on improving the ability to recognize the alphabet of children aged 4-5 years at TK As Shofa. Thus, smart box media can be used as an alternative in the learning process to support the introduction of alphabetic letters in early childhood Keywords:  Smart Box Media; Getting to Know the Alphabet Letters

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of three-dimensional (3D) art activities using playdough on the creativity development of children aged 5–6 years. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest control group was employed, involving 20 children who were evenly divided into experimental and control groups. Data were collected through observation using a validated creativity assessment instrument that measured fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The experimental group participated in several sessions of 3D art activities with playdough, while the control group received conventional learning without playdough. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Mann–Whitney U test, and N-Gain calculation. The results revealed a significant increase in creativity scores in the experimental group compared to the control group (p = 0.000). The experimental group achieved an N-Gain score in the medium category, while the control group was in the low category. These findings suggest that 3D art activities with playdough are effective in enhancing children’s creativity by stimulating divergent thinking, strengthening fine motor skills, and fostering self-confidence. The study recommends integrating playdough-based art activities into early childhood education curricula to optimize children’s creative potential.

Abstract

This study explores second language (L2) acquisition in children aged 6–12, focusing on the role of language exposure, social environment, and parenting/teaching strategies. Employing a qualitative case study design, three children with different backgrounds were observed: one attending an international school, one enrolled in a regular school with supplementary English lessons, and one studying at a bilingual school. Data were collected through participatory observation at home and school, in-depth interviews with parents and teachers, and document triangulation. The findings indicate that the intensity and consistency of L2 exposure strongly influence fluency, comprehension of instructions, and spontaneous language production. Children with consistent exposure across both home and school demonstrated higher proficiency, including natural code-switching, while those with limited exposure tended to be passive. Supportive social environments and consistent family language policies were also found to enhance L2 development. These results highlight the importance of collaboration between schools and families in providing rich, consistent, and meaningful language input for children.

Abstract

Educational transformation through digital technology integration has created a need for learning models that are not only adaptive but also capable of building student learning agency. In this context, blended socio-digital learning (BSDL) is a strategic approach combining face-to-face learning with digitally-based social interaction. This exploratory qualitative study aims to: (1) describe teacher strategies in designing and implementing BSDL, (2) identify forms of student learning agency that emerge, and (3) understand contextual pedagogical and social factors. Data was collected through interviews, participatory observation, and digital documentation. The results show that combining social interaction with creative technology use encourages students to be more reflective, responsible, and active in designing their learning experiences. In conclusion, BSDL positively contributes to strengthening student learning agency, particularly in flexible and personalized learning contexts. It is recommended that teachers design strategies that integrate social and digital dimensions balancedly and provide space for students to take an active role.

Abstract

Basic reading abilities are a crucial component of language development during early childhood. Observations at Amal Sholeh Islamic Kindergarten indicated that a majority of children aged 5 to 6 years experienced challenges in letter recognition, letter pronunciation, and associating sounds with letter symbols as a result of traditional teaching methods. This research seeks to enhance early reading abilities by using phonics techniques that focus on the systematic and multisensory recognition of letter sounds. The research conducted was a Classroom Action Research (CAR) model, based on the framework established by Kemmis and McTaggart, and it was implemented over a period of three months in two distinct cycles. The study involved 17 children who were part of group B. Data were gathered through observation, interviews, and documentation, which were confirmed using technical triangulation and expert assessment, and subsequently analyzed using both qualitative and quantitative methods. The findings revealed an upward trend in each cycle. The capability of teachers in organizing lessons improved from 69. 64% (good) in cycle I to 85. 71% (very good) in cycle II, whereas the execution of learning rose from 73% to 86%. The reading skills of children increased from 32% during the pre-cycle phase to 56. 25% in the first cycle, and further rose to 80% in the second cycle. Consequently, the phonics approach has demonstrated its effectiveness in enhancing reading abilities in young children, while also fostering a more engaging, enjoyable, and meaningful educational experience.

Abstract

Toilet training is a fundamental skill that is essential to instill from an early age because it plays a role in fostering independence, discipline, and responsibility in children. This study aims to analyze teacher strategies in promoting toilet training at Al Hidayah Tangkil 2 Kindergarten. A qualitative approach was used with a case study method. Data were collected through observation, teacher interviews, and activity documentation. Interview results were transcribed for thematic analysis, while observation data were recorded using a systematically compiled instrument throughout the learning activities. The findings indicate that the toilet training strategy was implemented in a structured and consistent manner. Teachers taught toilet etiquette according to religious guidance, trained children to queue, and instilled responsibility for personal belongings. The role of teachers was not only as facilitators but also as role models through direct practice and continuous communication. Obstacles that emerged included differences in home-school habits and limited parental understanding. Nevertheless, the strategy remained effective due to collaboration between educators. Practically, this study contributes to early childhood education teachers in designing consistent toilet training practices, based on religious values, and appropriate to children's developmental stages. For Islamic educational institutions, the results of this study can be used as a reference in developing more systematic habituation programs, involving parents, and strengthening the integration between aspects of personal hygiene and the formation of children's character. Keywords: the role of the teacher; toilet training; habituation

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of parents in supporting early childhood children experiencing social anxiety at RA Ihyaussalafiyah Ketawang. Children aged 0–6 years are in a golden age that determines cognitive, socio-emotional, physical, language, creativity, and religious development. Social anxiety can hinder interaction, reduce self-confidence, and affect children's psychological development. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study design through in-depth interviews with parents, teachers, the principal, and observations of children's behavior at home and school. The analysis was conducted to find patterns, themes, and meanings regarding the role of parents in helping children deal with social anxiety. The results showed that attention, warm parenting patterns, and harmonious communication between parents and teachers are protective factors in fostering a sense of security, self-confidence, and children's social skills. The educational program at RA Ihyaussalafiyah encompasses cognitive, social-emotional, physical, creative, cultural, and Islamic values aspects and has been proven effective in supporting children's growth and development, while synergy between family and school creates a conducive learning environment enabling children to develop into intelligent individuals with Islamic character, caring for culture, and ready to contribute positively to society.

Abstract

The study aims to examine the systematics and methodology of Quranic interpretation for children in Tafsir Juz 'Amma for Kids by Abdul Mustaqim and to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of this interpretation. The research employs a qualitative method with a content analysis approach. The primary data used in this study is Abdul Mustaqim's Tafsir Juz 'Amma for Kids. While the secondary data comes from various literature, both from books and journals related to interpretation methods and child development psychology. The results show that the interpretation method used is the tahlili method with a systematic structure, beginning with the introduction, asbabun nuzul (when available), vocabulary, general interpretation, and conclusion. The main characteristics of this interpretation include the use of simple and communicative language, a narrative style that is easy for children to understand, and is equipped with visual illustrations to strengthen understanding. The advantages of this interpretation lies in its child-friendly and structured approach, while its disadvantages are the limited coverage of surah, the lack of guidance for facilitators, and the suboptimal digital visual aspect. This research contributes to the development of contextual and relevant interpretations for children, and can be used as a reference by teachers and parents in assisting children in learning the Qur'an. Keywords: Abdul Mustaqim; Juz 'Amma for Kids; Interpretation Method; Children's Interpretation
