Metode Bermain: Upaya Menstimulusi Perkembangan Matematika Anak Usia Dini

Abstract

Mathematics is still considered one of the difficult and frightening subjects to learn. The play method is considered to be able to make the mathematics learning process more enjoyable, so that it can stimulate children's mathematical abilities. The purpose of this study was to determine the mathematical development of Group B children of PAUD Kasih Ibu. This research is a Classroom Action Research (PTK) in collaboration with class teachers. The subjects in this study were as many as 14 children. Data were collected using child ability test sheets, observations, field notes, and documentation. Data analyzed using P= . The results showed that children's mathematical ability in pre-cycle was 42%, cycle I was 72.3% and Cycle II was 99.1%. In addition, children have also been seen 1) like to play, 2) like new things, and 3) children are easily bored, so they need a variety of media and learning methods.

The Influence of Student Perception on Mathematics Learning Outcomes Through Implementation of Group Investigation Learning Model

“…Achieving the goals of learning mathematics began through efforts made by the government, from compiling an appropriate curriculum, improving the quality of teachers, and preparing reference modules and teacher guidelines to completing educational facilities and infrastructure (Andini et al, 2021). One of the most frequently encountered factors is the large number of students who think mathematics is complex, gloomy, and useless so that it becomes a subject that is disliked and less desirable (Ambarsari et al, 2022;Handayani et al, 2022;Sun et al, 2021). This way of thinking always makes students uninterested in studying mathematics because they believe it is monotonous and requires memorizing many formulas and symbols (Mawardini & Ningsih, 2022).…”
