IMPLEMENTASI METODE BERCERITA DALAM MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN BAHASA ANAK USIA 4-5 TAHUN

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the implementation of the storytelling method using Interactive Flat Panel (IFP) media featuring fables to enhance the language skills of children aged 4–5 years at KB Al Azhar Prenduan. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, which seeks to provide in-depth descriptions, explanations, and validation of educational phenomena in the field. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with teachers and children, and documentation of learning activities. Data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the use of the storytelling method via Interactive Flat Panel (IFP) and fables effectively addresses low concentration levels and student boredom often associated with conventional lecture methods. The implementation of this digital-based storytelling method led to a significant improvement in children's language abilities, as evidenced by the majority of children reaching the categories of Developing as Expected (BSH) and Very Well Developed (BSB). Overall, multimodal stimulation not only enhances linguistic competence but also effectively fosters children's motivation toward early literacy.
