The development of language, especially
reading, needs to develop starting from early grade students in primary schools
because it is one of the language skills. The purpose of this research was to
determine the effect of the model of problem-based learning assisted by the
lift flap book on the ability to tell of first-grade students in primary
schools. The design chosen is quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent control
group. The experimental group was given treatment, while the control group was
without treatment. The population used in this research is third-grade students
of Group 5 of Puren Public Primary School in Depok sub-district. The research
subjects are 54 students with the details of 28 control class students and 26
experimental class students. Third-grade students at Puren Public Primary
School and Ngringin Public Primary School are as research samples. Sampling
uses a purposive sampling technique because sampling is based on certain
objectives. Data were obtained through direct observation to school with
observations of reading motivation which was analyzed with the t-test variants.
The results show that the tarithmetic is 3.488, ttable
with reference to the formula (a/2); (df) equals (0.05/2); (54) equals 0.025;
54, then the value of ttable = 2.00488, thus tarithmetic >
ttable 3.814 > 2.005. Therefore, Ho is rejected while Ha is
accepted, meaning that learning with problem-based learning assisted by the
lift flap book influences students' reading motivation.
