Meningkatkan Kemampuan Berpkir Kritis Anak Usia 5-6 Tahun Melalui permainan TELAM di TK Labschool Unesa 1

Abstract

ABSTRACT

Based on the results of the research, it can be concluded that the "telam" game can improve children's critical thinking skills, particularly in observing, analyzing, and drawing conclusions. However, there were two children who did not show development because they were children with special needs. To address this challenge, it is recommended that teachers adopt a more individualized approach and focus on children who experience difficulties.

Based on the research conducted, it can be concluded that the "telam" game is effective in enhancing the critical thinking abilities of 5–6-year-old children at TK Labschool Unesa 1 Surabaya. This is evidenced by the results obtained in each cycle, with improvements seen from cycle 1 to cycle 2: in observing from 35% to 72.25%, in analyzing from 52.66% to 75%, and in drawing conclusions from 55% to 75%. These improvements indicate that the "telam" game is effective in helping to enhance the critical thinking skills of 5–6-year-old children, particularly in the areas of observing, analyzing, and drawing conclusions.
