Penerapan Metode Demonstrasi dalam Pembelajaran Ibadah Shalat untuk Meningkatkan Keterampilan Praktik Shalat pada Siswa di SDN 07 V Koto Timur

Abstract

This Classroom Action Research (CAR) aims to apply the demonstration 
method in Islamic worship education (Ibadah Shalat) to improve the 
practical skills of students in performing Shalat at SDN 07 V Koto Timur. 
The study was conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action, 
observation, and reflection. The research involved teachers and students of 
grade 4 at SDN 07 V Koto Timur. Data were collected through 
observations, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study 
indicated that the demonstration method significantly improved the 
students' practical skills in performing Shalat. Through direct 
demonstration by the teacher and repeated practice, students were able to 
perform the movements of Shalat more accurately and confidently. 
Additionally, the demonstration method increased the students' 
understanding of the significance of each movement in Shalat. This 
research shows that using demonstration as a teaching method in Ibadah 
Shalat is effective in helping students master the technical aspects of Shalat, 
as well as fostering a deeper understanding of the importance of performing 
Shalat correctly. It is recommended for teachers to incorporate this method 
to enhance the learning experience of students in religious education.
