Abstract/Notes: The study presents the results obtained in the long-term project “Taiwan preschool English classes: Montessori and non-Montessori approaches”. The article focuses on the analysis of the Montessori materials commonly implemented for teaching very young learners of English. Their teaching materials (e.g. vowel matching cards, sandpaper letters, sentence analysis signs) help to develop all four skills of English at the very early age. Furthermore, they let the kindergartners get acquainted with some metalinguistic knowledge of phonology (e.g. phonics, sound blend), syntax (sentence structure with parts of speech), morphology (building words) etc. Such deeper learning of English as foreign language by very young learners in a playful way leads to the fact that 4-6 years old Taiwanese children have a good foundation of basic English in speaking, reading, listening and writing, while growing in non-naturalistic environment of English. / В статье представлены результаты, полученные в рамках долгосрочного проекта «Тайваньские дошкольные занятия по английскому языку: Методика Монтессори и не-Монтессори». Статья посвящена анализу учебных пособий Монтессори, используемых для дошкольного обучения английскому языку (например карты соответствия гласных, наждачные буквы, знаки для анализа предложений), помогают развить все четыре навыка английского языка в самом раннем возрасте. Кроме того, они позволяют дошкольникам познакомиться с некоторыми металингвистическими знаниями фонологии (пр. фониксы), структуры предложений (с частями речи), морфологии (построение слов) и т. д. Такое более глубокое изучение английского языка как иностранного дошкольниками в игровой форме приводит к тому, что 4-6-летние тайваньские дети имеют хороший фундамент базового английского языка в разговорной речи, чтении, аудировании и письме, при этом не живя в среде английского языка.

Abstract/Notes: Reading is a skill that remains for a long time in persons with dementia (PWD), with oral reading and grammatical knowledge often being preserved through the latest stages of the condition. However, without access to dementia-appropriate reading materials, many senior living communities are compelled to provide children’s books to PWD. While the large font and simple sentences in such books make them easy to read, they fail to respect PWD’s status as adults who have significant life histories. Hearthside Book Club® (HBC) is a Montessori-based and adult-appropriate reading and discussion activity that capitalizes on the remaining abilities of PWD. This paper will discuss the key features of HBC, outcomes of a research study that examined HBC, processes used to disseminate HBC, and lessons learned while disseminating the intervention. Regarding the research study, persons from all stages of dementia participated (N=108), with 33% in the Early Stages, 28% in the Middle Stages, and 39% in the Late Stages. When compared to baseline activities, HBC produced an 85% increase in Constructive Engagement (p<.01), a 91% increase in Pleasure (p<.01), a 76% decrease in Distracted Engagement (p<.01), and a 59% decrease in Non-Engagement (p<.01). In addition, Quality of Life (measured with the DEMQOL) increased (p<.05), while Apathy (measured by the NPI-NH) decreased (p<.05). Regarding dissemination of HBC, a competitive analysis, surveys, and interviews with end users were used to determine optimal ways of delivering and pricing the intervention. Ultimately, we decided to disseminate HBC digitally as a Book of the Week Club.

Abstract/Notes: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penggunaan metode montessori terhadap kemampuan membaca permulaan siswa kelas I SD Negeri 51 Toli-Toli Kabupaten Pangkep. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian eksperimen (Pre-experimental design). Pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain penelitian Onegroup Pretest-Posttest Design. Prosedur penelitian meliputi tahap persiapan, pelaksanaan, dan penyelesaian. Teknik pengumpulan data berupa tes dan observasi. Teknik analisis data berupa analisis statistik deskriptif dan inferensial uji-t (t-test). Sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas I SD Negeri 51 Toli-Toli Kabupaten Pangkep sebanyak 28 orang yang terdiri dari 12 laki-laki dan 16 perempuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan metode Montessori berpengaruh terhadap kemampuan membaca permulaan siswa kelas I SD Negeri 51 Toli-Toli Kabupaten Pangkep. Terbukti dengan hasil analisis statistik deskriptif yang menunjukkan hasil belajar siswa dengan menggunakan metode Montessori mengalami perubahan yang lebih baik daripada sebelum diterapkannya metode Montessori. Hasil analisis statistik inferensial menggunakan rumus uji t (t-test), diketahui bahwa nilai t Hitung yang diperoleh adalah 26,77 dengan frekuensi db = 28 - 1 = 27, pada taraf signifikansi 0,05 (5%) diperoleh t 0,05 = 2,05183. Jadi, t Hitung > t Tabel atau Hipotesis nol (H0) ditolak dan Hipotesis Alternatif (H1) diterima. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa ada pengaruh dalam penggunaan metode Montessori terhadap kemampuan membaca permulaan siswa kelas 1 SD Negeri 51 Toli-Toli Kabupaten Pangkep. [This research aims to determine the effect of using the Montessori method on the beginning reading abilities of class I students at SD Negeri 51 Toli-Toli, Pangkep Regency. This type of research is experimental research (Pre-experimental design). The approach used in this research is a quantitative approach with a Onegroup Pretest-Posttest Design research design. Research procedures include preparation, implementation and completion stages. Data collection techniques include tests and observations. The data analysis technique is in the form of descriptive statistical analysis and inferential t-test (t-test). The sample in this study was 28 class I students of SD Negeri 51 Toli-Toli, Pangkep Regency, consisting of 12 men and 16 women. The results of the study showed that the use of the Montessori method had an effect on the beginning reading ability of class I students at SD Negeri 51 Toli-Toli, Pangkep Regency. This is proven by the results of descriptive statistical analysis which shows that student learning outcomes using the Montessori method have changed for the better than before the implementation of the Montessori method. The results of inferential statistical analysis using the t test formula (t-test), it is known that the calculated t value obtained is 26.77 with a frequency of db = 28 - 1 = 27, at a significance level of 0.05 (5%) obtained t 0.05 = 2.05183. So, t Count > t Table or Null Hypothesis (H0) is rejected and the Alternative Hypothesis (H1) is accepted. This proves that there is an influence in using the Montessori method on the beginning reading abilities of grade 1 students at SD Negeri 51 Toli-Toli, Pangkep Regency.]

Abstract/Notes: [...]far, Griffin has benefited from reading poems and singing songs that feature rhymes, alliteration, and phonological word play-activities that may already be in your classroom. [...]toy (/oy/), bridge (/j/), house (/ow/), boat (long/O/). Note that words beginning with continuant consonant sounds (ones you can stretch out until you run out of breath, like /mmmmm/ and /sssssssss/) are easier for students to isolate than stop sounds (like /p/ and /b/). A typical lesson might have ten words and include a sequence such as: ship, chip, chop, top, tap, tack, tuck, duck, deck, check.

Abstract/Notes: The aim of this research developed Teaching Module for students’ Reading Difficulty at Primary School. This research uses the Borg and Gall development procedure which has been simplified into 4 stages, namely (1) research and data collection, (2) planning, (3) module development, (4) validation and testing. The research subjects were students who had difficulty learning to read at the beginning of grade I elementary school. Data collection techniques use observation, reading ability tests, product validation questionnaires by experts. The steps used in this research and development are (1) research and gathering initial information; (2) planning; (3) product format development; (4) small scale trials; (5) final revision and product improvement. Module validation is carried out by media expert validators, material experts and class teachers. The score from the media expert validator got a percentage of 96%, the score from the media expert validator got a percentage of 96%, the class teacher got a percentage of 100%. Thus, all validation results are classified in the "very feasible" category. Based on research on the quality of learning media, learning modules without spelling using the Montessori method have been made feasible and practical for use in teaching and learning reading activities at MIS Nurul Falah Kemuning.
