Improving Motor Skills and Math Logic through the Method of Traditional Games Engklek in Early Childhood

Abstract

The purpose of the research is to increase motoric ability and mathematical logic for early children through playing engklek traditional game. The basic subject of the research is on group B Permata Bunda kindergarten by using the experimental design. The method of this research is action research which using the technique of collecting and monitoring the activity sheet of the descriptions of the data analysis. This procedure involves four phases. They are planning, action, observation and reflection. The results showed that the implementation of Engklek traditional games increased students motoric skills and mathematical logic student. Engklek Traditional game is more effective than conventional learning in the experimental phase. Keywords—motoric; mathematical logic; engklek traditional game
