PENGARUH DISPLAY KELAS TEMATIK BERBASIS INTERAKTIF TERHADAP KEMAMPUAN MENGENAL LAMBANG BILANGAN PADA ANAK USIA DINI

This study aims to examine the effect of interactive thematic classroom displays on the ability of 45-year-old children to recognize number symbols 1-10 at PAUD El-Mahya Sukaluyu Cianjur. The problem stems from children's difficulty in recognizing number symbols, which is caused by passive teaching methods and a lack of interactive media. The research used a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one group pretest-posttest design, involving 10 children from group A. Data were collected through observation, tests, and documentation. Data analysis included descriptive and inferential statistics (normality test, t-test, and simple linear regression). The results showed that the implementation of the interactive thematic classroom display was in the Very Good category (80.42%). There was a significant improvement in the children's ability to recognize number symbols 1-10, with the average pretest score increasing from 12.8 (Developing as Expected) to 16.4 (Developing Very Well) in the posttest. The interactive thematic display also had a significant positive effect on the children's ability to recognize number symbols. The coefficient of determination (R²) was 0.661, indicating that 66.1% of the variation in number symbol recognition ability can be explained by this variable.
