Abstract

The main problem in this study is the low reading ability of the first graders of SD Negeri Heuleut II in Indonesian subjects. One of the factors that cause low students' reading ability is that the learning process still uses conventional media, namely by using the blackboard and learning is only teacher-centered and makes students passive. The purpose of the research to be achieved is to find out whether letter card media can improve early reading skills in grade I SD Negeri Heuleut II, Leuwimunding District, Majalengka Regency. The variable that is the target of change in this classroom action research is to improve the early reading ability of first grade elementary school students, while the action variable used in this research is letter card media. This Classroom Action Research was carried out in two cycles with a total of 25 students, each cycle consisting of action planning, observation and reflection. From the results of the first cycle of action, the students' initial reading learning outcomes were obtained with an average value of 69 with a student percentage of 52%. The results of the second cycle of action obtained were the students' initial reading learning outcomes with an average value of 78.67 with a student percentage of 92%. Thus, it can be concluded that learning Indonesian (preliminary reading) by using letter card media can improve early reading skills in grade I SD Negeri Heuleut II, Leuwimunding District, Majalengka Regency.
