Structural Analytic Synthetic Learning Method for Early Reading Ability

Abstract

The Structural Analytic Synthetic (SAS) method is a learning method that begins with the introduction of complete sentence structures that build meaningful concepts in children. This research aimed to determine the effect of the SAS method on children's early reading abilities. This research uses a quantitative method with an experimental approach, using a pre-experimental one-group pretest and posttest design. Participants in this research were all early childhood children aged 6-7 years, totaling 32 children. Collection techniques include observation, interviews, and tests. The use of the SAS method in classroom learning has a positive influence, children's initial reading Ability when applying the SAS method in learning has a very big influence. The SAS method is an initial reading learning method that begins with presenting complete sentences which are then broken down into words into independent syllables and letters and combined again starting from letters into syllables, and words into complete sentences.

Keywords: children aged 6-7 years, early reading ability, structural analytic-synthetic method
