Reading literacy skills using the guided reading method among elementary school students
Reading comprehension skills are still a problem for students in elementary school. Elementary school students are not yet able to know the content of the text they read. Therefore, this study aims to improve the reading comprehension skills of fourth grade students of Elementary school Sinduadi Timur Sleman Yogyakarta. This research is a classroom action research with research procedures in the form of planning, action, and reflection. The subjects of this study were fourth grade students of Elementary school Sinduadi Timur in the 2024-2025 school year. Data collection techniques used were observation and documentation. The instruments used in the study include observation sheets, documentation and tests. The results showed an increase in reading comprehension scores at the end of cycle II. In the pretest, the average score was 69.1. Then, the average score in cycle I was 77.1. At the end of cycle II, the average score was 81.5. The increase in the average score was significant because the results of the second cycle score were above the minimum completion criteria (≥ 75). The conclusion is that Guided Reading Strategy can improve the reading literacy of elementary school students.
