Pengaruh Permainan Air Akuatik (Aquatic) Terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Kritis Anak Usia 5-6 Tahun
Abstract
This study focuses on answering the question of whether there is an influence of aquatic water games on the critical thinking skills of children aged 5-6 years in one of the kindergarten schools (TK) in Pohuwato Regency. The research method used is quantitative pre-experimental experiment (on-group pretest-posttest design). The sample in this study was 15 children in class B. The results of the study showed that the average pre-test value was 19.06 with a standard deviation of 3.5550 and the average post-test value was 35.06 with a standard deviation of 1.3870. These results prove that there is a significant influence before and after treatment. Based on the hypothesis testing that has been carried out through the t-test, it shows that the sig. (2-tailed) value is obtained, namely the t-count value of 20.6559 and the t-table value at the 0.05 real level is 2.145. So t-count> t-table then H0 is rejected or H1 is accepted. This means that there is an influence of aquatic water games on critical thinking skills in children aged 5-6 years
