The aim of this research is to establish the contribution of demonstration and student-led experiments on the quality of students’ knowledge about the air-related content in the third grade of primary school. This research included 120 students from Serbia, divided into two groups: control (C) and experimental (E). In group C the experiments were demonstrated by the teacher, whereas those same experiments were independently conducted by the students’ inside smaller groups in group E. The quality of the students’ knowledge was examined after the application of the experiments with the post-test, while the quality of the duration of knowledge was examined with the retest. The students in the group E acquired the knowledge of the higher quality and more durable knowledge about the air-related content then the students’ from the group C on the cognitive levels: analysis, evaluation and synthesis. Therefore, the priority should be given to the student-led experiments over the demonstration, when processed air-related content in the third grade of primary school, because their application contributes to the increase of the students’ knowledge quality. Keywords: demonstration experiments, primary school, student knowledge quality, student-led experiments, third grade.

<p>The performance culture teaching method was first proposed by the American Sinologist Wu Weike. It is a teaching method to learn a second language through the comprehension and practice of the target language. It focuses on culture and practice. The learner presents the story in a rehearsal manner in the context of the target language culture. Picture book teaching is a popular teaching method for primary school English teachers at this stage. Its novel feature of moving from outside class to classroom makes it an indispensable teaching method in primary school English teaching. This article takes the PEP version of the third grade English textbook as an example for teaching design and integrates the performance culture teaching method with the picture book teaching in the primary school English classroom teaching. The focus of research in teaching design is teaching implementation, that is, the application of performance methods in primary school English classrooms. This teaching design combines picture book teaching and performance culture teaching methods to promote primary school English teaching.</p>

Background The lack of home learning readiness highly influences the learning process. The preventive way by self-home learning may bring positive effects, namely they will be able to understand the teacher’s explanation or tutorial and do what is being instructed in accomplishing assignments or answering questions. Purpose: was to find out the effects of anticipatory guidance on the learning readiness in the third-grade students of elementary school. Method Quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest control group design. The population involved all third-grade students of SDN Sidomoro 1, Kebomas sub-district, Gresik in which 98 respondents were taken as the samples by applying the total sampling technique. The respondents were then classified into two groups: control group and study group, 48 students each. The instrument: observation sheet. The data analysis using descriptive statistic. Result findings the pre-test value of the study group on good learning readiness was shown by 9 students (34.7%). Compared to the post-test value with the same group, 40 students (81.6%) were in good category. On the other hand, among the control group, the pre-test value showed that 20 students (40.8%) also had good learning readiness, whereas the post-test value described that 17 students (36.7%) were also in good learning readiness. Conclusion Based on the result presented above, providing of anticipatory guidance for students of elementary school is very important to increase the readiness of student’s self-learning for the positive effect, learning achievement.

<p>This study is aimed at gaining an understanding of the influence of e-portfolio on the process and quality of translation (acceptability, accuracy, and readability) of students and how e-portfolio affects the process and quality of student translations. The method used in this research is sequential explanatory design. The subjects of this study are the third-year students of English Education Department at Universitas Singaperbangsa Karawang (UNSIKA) Indonesia who took translation practice course. The quantitative data are taken from the pre-test and post-test results. The qualitative data are gained from questionnaire and interview. After analysis, it is found that e-portfolio influenced the students’ translation ability where the value is Sig. = 0.001 &lt; α = 0.05. It was discovered that 82% students achieved higher score in acceptability. Meanwhile, 62% students achieved higher score in accuracy, and only 56% students achieved higher score in readability. In terms of translation process, e-portfolio helps students track their progress, give and receive feedback from various participants, as well as have virtual room to sort their works which are easily accessible.</p>

Mathematical reasoning is a crucial competence for the construction of useful knowledge. The text presents selected results of the study of students of the third grade of an elementary school in the field of text task solving. The conducted educational experiment showed the potential of solving non-standard tasks for developing the reasoning of mathematically weaker students. Contact with tasks that require independent mathematizing allowed to reduce the number of students with the lowest results in the post test. The ways of understanding the role of drawing in exploring mathematical relations described in the task were analysed.

The research objective is to analyze the effect of games on the dynamics of strength development in boys of the second-fourth grades. Research methods: theoretical analysis and collation of scientific and methodological literature, method of control testing, pedagogical experiment, methods of mathematical statistics. Research results. The paper addresses the feasibility of further scientific substantiation for the effect of the number of games, the number of repetitions, the intervals of rest and their interrelation on the change in the strength indicators for boys of primary school age. The study has revealed that strength development requires that the pupils of the second and the third grades perform four games, while the pupils of the fourth grade — five games. The number of repetitions for the pupils of the second grade is one and two, for the pupils of the third grade — two, and for the boys of the fourth grade — three, with 40-second intervals for rest. The most effective development manifests in the second and the fourth grades during 20 classes, and in the third grade —during 30 classes. After that, it is advisable to use other means. The game duration varies from two to five minutes. Conclusions. The results obtained during the experiment give reason to recommend that primary school teachers, coaches and parents use active games in physical education, sports training and individual motor activity of boys of primary school age. These games should aim at developing strength abilities, both purposefully and in complex with regard to the duration and pace (intensity) of their performance.
