Abstract/Notes: Modification of Montessori Games on Fine Motor Skills in Early Childhood Group A Al Ijtihad Kindergarten Abstract Early childhood children are unique individuals in that they have different needs according to their age stages. At this time the process of growth and development in various physical, social, emotional and cognitive aspects is experiencing the fastest period in the development of human life. The results of observations in the field show that fine motor skills in group A Al Ijtihad Kindergarten are still low and experiencing delays. The fine motor activities provided do not really stimulate children's development and educators' strategies in delivering learning are still not appropriate. Montessori games, which are a learning method that depends on each student, have the advantage of fostering critical thinking, collaborating and acting more decisively, so it is important to implement them in the learning process to improve children's fine motor skills. The aim of this research is to determine the results of implementing modified Montessori games on fine motor skills in group A of Al Ijtihad Kindergarten. The research design used in this research is the Classroom Action Research (PTK) method, which aims to determine the progress of student learning outcomes after being given certain learning methods. The results of the study showed that there was an increase in children's fine motor skills by 55% based on evaluations from cycle 1 and cycle II. It is hoped that further research can expand the research area and sample size, as well as include various variations of games to develop aspects of children's abilities. / Anak usia dini merupakan individu yang unik dimana mereka mempunyai kebutuhan berbeda sesuai dengan tahapan usianya. Pada masa ini proses pertumbuhan dan perkembangan dalam berbagai aspek fisik, sosial emosional, kognitif sedang mengalami masa tercepat dalam rentang perkembangan kehidupan manusia. Hasil observasi di lapangan menunjukan bahwa kemampuan motorik halus pada kelompok A TK Al Ijtihad masih rendah dan mengalami keterlambatan. Kegiatan motorik halus yang diberikan tidak benar-benar menstimulus perkembangan anak dan strategi pendidik dalam menyampaikan pembelajaran masih kurang tepat. Permainan Montessori yang merupakan metode belajar yang bergantung pada masing-masing anak didik, memiliki keunggulan dalam menumbuhkan kekritisan berfikir, berkolaborasi, dan bertindak lebih tegas, sehingga penting untuk diimplentasikan dalam proses pembelajaran untuk meningkatkan kemampuan motorik halus anak. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hasil implementasi modifikasi permainan montessori terhadap kemampuan motorik halus pada kelompok A TK Al Ijtihad. Desain penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode Penelitian Tindakan Kelas (PTK), yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui progres hasil belajar siswa setelah diberikan metode pembelajaran tertentu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya peningkatan kemampuan motorik halus anak sebesar 55% berdasarkan evaluasi dari siklus 1 dan siklus II. Penelitian lebih lanjut diharapkan dapat memperluas area penelitian dan jumlah sampel, serta memasukkan berbagai variasi permainan untuk mengembangkan aspek kemampuan anak.

Abstract/Notes: Learning with nature is increasingly popular in Malaysia. However, there are challenges when designing kindergarten outdoor physical environments to assist learning with nature in Malaysia. Previous studies have looked into the types of necessary nature interaction and spaces needed for learning with nature. However, there is a gap in understanding the factors influencing the methods to include nature in the kindergarten outdoor areas. This research aims to investigate the methods of incorporating nature in the outdoor physical environment of kindergartens to facilitate learning with nature. This research is a multiple case study using maximum variation sampling. The main findings suggest that each school’s design is unique as their curriculums and philosophy are different, and the way children interact with nature depends on it. Gibson’s Theory of Affordances, which is when the environment and surroundings allow for the interaction we intended, can help design kindergarten outdoor areas to cater to the curriculum. Integrating nature and man-made materials in the design can create a conducive environment for learning with nature. External factors namely the size of available outdoor areas, terrain conditions, and others will influence how nature is incorporated in the design.
