PENERAPAN MODEL SQ4R UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KETERAMPILAN MEMBACA PEMAHAMAN PADA SISWA KELAS IV SD

Abstract

This research is motivated by the lack of students' reading comprehension skills caused by the use of learning models that are less varied or still use conventional learning. The purpose of this study is to describe how the application of the SQ4R model to improve reading comprehension skills in grade IV elementary school students. The research method used is classroom action research (CAR) with Kemmis and Mc Taggart models. This research was conducted in two cycles with research subjects of 29 students. Data obtained through tests, observations, and documentation studies. Data analysis was carried out qualitatively with 3 stages, namely data reduction, data exposure, and data inference. Quantitative data by calculating the value of the results of reading comprehension, average value and student learning completeness. From the test results and observational analysis each cycle shows a positive development of learning by applying the SQ4R model. The average value obtained in the first cycle of 71 the second cycle increased to 90. While the increase in mastery learning in the first cycle of 55.2% and increased in the second cycle of 93.1%. Based on the results of these improvements, that the application of the SQ4R model can improve reading comprehension skills in grade IV elementary school students.
