Online teaching and learning (T&L) is a new norm in the education system. This study was conducted to identify the challenges and impacts of online learning on the reading and writing literacy of primary school students. The research approach used was quantitative. The study sample consisted of 109 Level 2 students who were randomly selected in Pekan and Muadzam Shah Districts, Pahang. The research instrument was a questionnaire. Questionnaire data were analyzed through Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25 software. The findings of the study showed that the challenges of online learning and the impacts of online learning on reading skills were at a moderate level with mean = 3.07 and mean = 2.46 respectively. The impact of online learning on writing skills was at a low level with a mean = 2.21. T-test inferential analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the impacts of online learning by gender on reading and writing skills. The correlation analysis showed a significant relationship between internet access and the impacts of online learning on reading and writing skills. These findings indicated that stable internet access improves students’ online reading and writing skills. Therefore, the study found that the reading and writing skills of Level 2 students were at a moderately satisfactory level even though the learning was implemented online. Therefore, this study implies that the problem of mastering reading and writing skills among primary school students can be overcome throughout online learning.

Statistics showed that more than 80% of children in developed and developing countries suffer from dental disease. This study aimed to see the safety of OHIS (Oral Hygiene Index Simplified) in primary school students who got and did not get little dentist cadre training in Bangli Regency in 2019. The study was done in an experimental design: pre and post-test with control design, which was conducted in August-September 2019. The sample in this study is 366 students. The difference in OHIS scores before and after treatment in the control group and treatment group was carried out by the bivariate Mann Whitney U Test. The results of the study showed that before dental health training was conducted, there were 54.3% of primary school students in the treatment group with good OHIS score criteria, and after the training was carried out as many as 98.4% of the students in the treatment group had a good OHIS. Additionally, prior to the training, 57.5% of the control group had fair OHIS criteria score. Then, after the training was carried out, 73.7% of the control group had good OHIS score. Hence, the study concluded that there was a significant difference in the OHIS of primary school students who got little doctor training prior to and after the training. Also, there was a significant difference in the OHIS of the students who did not get such treatment before and after the training.

Abstract Research evidence on traditional dance teaching has shown how important it is for primary school education to institute reforms and present new ways of intervention in order to contribute effectively to the overall development of the child's personality. The aim of this research is a) to demonstrate the effectiveness of a music and movement instructional program on traditional dance learning, in terms of primary school students patterns of self-reported positive learning experiences and active lesson participation and b) to examine its impact on students’ internal motivation to play and dance with a more enjoyable and creative mood. During a period of six months 80 students (34 boys and 46 girls) aged between 9-10 years old, took part in the research. They were divided into two groups, the experimental group (N = 40) and control group (N = 40). The experimental group was taught Greek traditional dances according to a Music and Movement teaching model, while the control group was taught the same dances with a direct teaching model. The impact of the two models on students’ motivation to participate actively during the lesson was tested with the use of the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI). The results showed that the use of Music and Movement teaching models can have a positive impact on students’ intrinsic motivation and active participation in the course of traditional dance.
