Purpose – This study aims to obtain information about the effect of using the Montessori cards and counters’ mathematics activity on learning the result of odd and even numbers of 1 to 10 to the kindergarten students at the age of 4 to 5 years.Design/methods/approach – Quantitative research with a quasi-experimental model of non-equivalent control group design was carried out by applying conventional methods (lectures and giving questions by worksheets) to the control group and applying the Montessori learning model through the use of Cards and Counters apparatus in the experimental group with 30 samples of students, divided into two classes (control class and experiment class) at Kalyca Azzahra School, West Java, Indonesia.Findings – The result showed that students who used the Montessori Mathematics cards and counters achieved higher mathematics odd and even numbers are learning results than those who were not taught with the Montessori approach.Research implications/limitations – This research design used pre-test and post-test. Thus, the treatment results can be more accurate because they can be compared before and after treatment.Practical implications – The use of the Montessori apparatus becomes necessary in introducing early mathematics to children and attracting children’s attention to learn and facilitate teachers in teaching mathematics. Displaying the concrete objects as a medium will help teachers in teaching early mathematics to children. The cards and counters allow children to verify their understanding of the concept by matching the qualitative, concrete, quantitative, or abstract before slowly removing the concrete altogether.Originality/value – This research contributes to understanding learning strategies used in Early Mathematics, Odd and Even Numbers. The Montessori apparatus becomes more natural to understand it by the child’s cognitive development effortlessly. Paper type Research paper

The approach used in this study is quantitative research with the type of quasi-experimental research, in this study the selection of samples on experimental quasi type Non Equivalent Control Group Design is not done random sample selection but deliberately selected by the researchers ie with each sample control class 31 students and experimental class of 34 students. The instruments used in this research are: test, observation, and documentation. The process of applying story method on SKI subjects through ten stages are: Place of story, sitting position, story language, interesting, teacher intonation, appearance of figures, emotional appearance, sound imitation, moving, mastery of students who are not serious. The average post-test of the control class is 75.81 and the average post-test of the experimental class is 77.06 so Based on the acquisition of that value that -t arithmetic> -t table (-14.219> -2.035), for the experimental class then Ha be accepted. This means that in this experimental class the value of the test using the story method is higher than by using learning that does not use the method of story (lecture). In addition, researchers also observed the activities of teachers in the application of story methods, observation data resulted in the percentage of control class teachers without using the story method by 45%, and the percentage of experimental class teachers by applying the story method by 87%. So it can be concluded that there is a significant influence by applying the story method in learning, if the teacher knows and can apply the stages in the story method properly and correctly. So the application of story methods can affect student learning outcomes on SKI subjects are said to be effective and there are significant changes or improvements. This story method can be one of the alternative learning methods that can be applied in the learning process.
