Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh proses pembelajaran IPA yang monoton, yaitu mengunakan metode ceramah sehingga kurang melibatkan aktivitas siswa dalam kegiatan pembelajaran yang mengakibatkan siswa jenuh dan kesulitan dalam memahami materi pelajaran sehingga hasil belajar siswa rendah. Penerapan pendekatan Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) dijadikan solusi yang tepat untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut. CTL mengutamakan pengalaman nyata, berfikir tingkat tinggi, berpusat pada siswa aktif, kritis dan kreatif, pengetahuan bermakna, dan kegiatannya bukan mengajar tetapi belajar. Selain itu keunggulan lain yakni kegiatannya lebih kepada pendidikan bukan pembelajaran, sebagai pembentukan manusia, memecahkan masalah, siswa aktif guru mengarahkan, dan hasil belajar diukur dengan berbagai alat ukur tidak hanya tes saja. Adapun tujuan penelitian yaitu : untuk mengetahui aktifitas dan hasil belajar siswa kelas III SD Plus 2 Al-Muhajirin setelah menerapkan pendekatan CTL. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian tindakan kelas, yaitu penelitian yang digunakan untuk memperbaiki kualitas pembelajaran. Penelitian ini terdiri dari deskripsi awal, siklus satu dan siklus dua. Masing-masing siklus meliputi beberapa tahap yaitu perencanaan, pelaksanaan, observasi, dan refleksi. Instrumen pengumpulan data menggunakan tes hasil belajar siswa, angket dan lembar observasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa pada siklus I, siswa yang memdapatkan nilai sesuai KKM (75) sebanyak 21 siswa dari 33 siswa dengan nilai rata-rata 77.87 dan daya serap klasikal sebesar 63.63%. Sedangkan pada siklus II, siswa yang mendapat nilai sesuai KKM sebanyak 29 siswa dari 33 siswa dengan nilai rata-rata 90.61 dan daya serap klasikal sebesar 93.94%. Aktivitas siswa meningkat dari 66.99% di siklus I, menjadi 87.77 di siklus II. Demikian pula dengan respon siswa terhadap pembelajaran mencapai 96.6% yang berarti dengan penerapan pendekatan CTL pun dapat meningkatkan motivasi dan ketertarikan siswa dalam pembelajaran IPA khususnya pada materi Energi Gerak.

<p class="Abstract">research was motivated by the low skills of students reading comprehension main focus on subjects Indonesian. Students are still not able to control aspects of reading would like to understand the content of reading, determining the main idea or infer the content of reading. The study was conducted in class V SDN Cibukamanah Cibatu District of Purwakarta. There are 28 students involved in the study, which consisted of 13 male students and 15 female students. The method used in this research is the Classroom Action Research (CAR), which consists of four phases: planning, implementation, observation and reflection and is done in two cycles. Data were collected through observation and preliminary tests. Seen from the initial test results showed that the students only scored an average of 59.82 with a percentage of 59.82% are less and does not reach the predetermined value KKM is 63. To overcome these problems, researchers applied learning models <em>Cooperative Integrated Reading Composition </em>(CIRC). The purpose of this study was to determine the activity and student learning outcomes in reading comprehension skills, after applying the model of <em>Cooperative Integrated Reading And </em>Composition.The findings of the research results can be seen from the acquisition percentage mastery learning achievement of students overall from starting the first cycle which scored an average of 70.8 with a percentage of 70.71% in the category quite well. Then increased in the second cycle the average value obtained at 75.89 with the percentage of 75.89% uncategorized well. From these results, it can be concluded that the application of the model <em>Cooperative Integrated Reading And Composition </em>(CIRC) can improve student learning outcomes, especially reading skills of understanding that seen at the end of each lesson the first cycle and the second cycle showed a considerable increase in value and target indicators in addition to improving learning outcomes also increase the activity of students during the learning process in class V SDN Cibukamanah.</p>
Writing skill becomes a concern nowadays since it is an important skill in communication and becomes the hallmark of a creative, imaginative, and educated nation. Yet, in fact, students� writing skills are generally low which can be seen from the lack of quality of writing produced. This is caused by some factors, including the lack of time allocation provided by the teacher to practice writing, the lack of teachers� creativity in using learning models that can stimulate students to write, and the low of students� reading habits. Hence, this study aims to identify the effectiveness of Discovery Learning (DL) model in improving students� fiction writing. This research is a quasi experimental with nonequivalent control group design. The sample of research was the fourth grader of elementary school in Purwakarta sub-district. The data in this research were collected through writing test, observation, and interview. Moreover, students� writing skills were assessed by using writing rubric which has been validated by expert lecturers. Further, the data were then analyzed by using inference statistics including normality test, homogeneity test, and t-test. The results revealed that discovery learning model is effective in improving students� fiction writing which can be seen from students� post test score. This is because discover learning model allows students to explore, classify, and utilize more data to improve their imagination, their vocabulary selection, and their creativity as well.Keywords: discovery learning model; writing skill; fiction writing.
