PENERAPAN LITERASI BACA TULIS UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KETERAMPILAN BERBAHASA SISWA SEKOLAH DASAR

Abstract

Reading and writing literacy is a fundamental competence that plays an important role in supporting the development of elementary school students’ language skills. This study aims to describe the implementation of reading and writing literacy in Indonesian language learning at SD Negeri 2 Kesiman. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach involving 25 students as research participants. Data were collected through classroom observations, documentation, and analysis of students’ assignments. The learning activities included guided reading, comprehension of text content, identification of important information, vocabulary development, oral communication of students’ understanding, and expression of ideas through writing. The data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, while data credibility was strengthened through technique triangulation. The findings indicate that reading and writing literacy can be integrated into Indonesian language learning through interconnected reading, listening, speaking, and writing activities. Students were actively involved in reading learning materials, processing information, communicating their understanding, and completing written assignments with teacher guidance. These activities provided opportunities for students to use language actively throughout the learning process. The study concludes that the implementation of reading and writing literacy can support active, structured, and meaningful Indonesian language learning experiences for elementary school students.
