The purpose of this study was to determine: (1) the implementation of playing methods in science learning at Raudhatul Atfhal Asyyifa Medan. (2) children's activities in participating in science learning at Raudhatul Atfhal Asyyifa Medan, and (3) the application of play methods can improve children's critical thinking skills in science learning. The study was conducted at Raudhatul Atfhal Asyyifa Medan. The method used is a qualitative research method. Data sources are the principal, teachers and students. Data retrieved through observation, documentation, and interviews. Data are analyzed based on data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. The research findings show: (1) the implementation of play methods in science learning at Raudhatul Atfhal Asyyifa Medan, presented through various science experiment activities that can improve children's critical thinking skills. This can happen, because in science learning done with fun through science experiments that are packaged in playing while learning, children are not burdened with things that are academic because actually the nature of learning in kindergarten emphasizes more fun learning activities so the concept of play is very strong, (2) children's activities in participating in science learning at Raudhatul Atfhal Asyyifa Medan showed a positive response in this case because learning is done while playing that brings children to a pleasant atmosphere because science experiments applied are varied experiments in which there are children's activities to think critically, and (3) the application of play methods can improve children's critical thinking skills in learning science.

Mathematical learning needs to be given to all students starting from elementary school, so that students practice how to think in drawing conclusions and be able to express their opinions with the beliefs and honesty that comes from someone. But when learning mathematics the problem that often arises is a lack of motivation. Baroody (1993) says that reasoning is an important tool in learning mathematics to produce ideas so students can understand mathematical concepts correctly. Efforts made by teachers to improve thinking skills and motivation in learning mathematics are through the Adobe Flash CS 5.0 game which is expected to provide new and enjoyable experiences for teachers and students. In addition to more varied learning, students can be motivated to learn and enjoy what they learn.

Paulo Freire was a Brazilian educator, and was seen as a theorist of critical pedagogy. Freire’s works have a particular significance for contemporary education in different countries. This paper aims to rethink Freire’s dialogic pedagogy, and further illuminate its implications for teachers’ teaching. In order to do so, firstly, we explain the importance of Freire’s dialogic pedagogy. Secondly, we explore the theory & practice of dialogue. Thirdly, this study explains that the dialogue between teachers and students is a way of promoting critical consciousness. Finally, we explore dialogic pedagogy, and illuminate its implications for teachers’ teaching. By reading and analyzing related studies, the implications can be summarized as follows: (1) practicing love-based teaching, (2) developing humility-based teaching, (3) nourishing hope-centered teaching, (4) enriching humor-based teaching, (5) developing silence-based teaching, (6) teachers should promotes students’ critical thinking ability in their teaching, and (7) teachers deeply believe that their students will achieve a better vocation.

Science learning materials with learning cycle 7E were developed to improve student’s critical thinking ability as the life necessities in 21st century. The purposes of this research are developing suitable science learning materials and complying eligible criteria, those are valid, practice, and effective. The subjects of this research was science learning materials with learning cycle 7E were developed to improve student’s critical thinking ability which implemented in students of first grade on junior high school of SMP Bilingual Terpadu Krian in second semester of 2015-2016 academic seasons. Learning materials were developed by 4D model and tested by using one group pretest-posttest design. Data was collected by the assessments of expert based on the validity of materials by expert, implemented lesson plan by observer, written test to measure the student’s critical thinking ability, and questionnaire to measure the student’s response of interest. The collected data was analyzed by qualitative and quantitative methods. The results of this research are the learning materials using learning cycle 7E is eligible to improve the student’s critical thinking ability. The contemplations of it are validation of the instruments in a good category, book can be read easily, feasibility of instruction in a good category, student’s critical thinking increase, student’s activities in the learning processes in a good category, and student’s response is positive.The research’s result axplain that effectiveness of lesson plain use 7E phase is not down if work sheet and students book develop by 7E phase too. The suggestion that can be inform was using 7E phase to develop work sheet and student’s book so that student’e activity more aimed and it make efficient of learning’s time. Perangkat pembelajaran IPA menggunakan learning cycle 7E dikembangkan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa sebagai salah satu upaya memenuhi kebutuhan kehidupan abad 21. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengembangkan perangkat yang layak dan memenuhi kriteria valid, praktis, dan efektif. Subjek penelitian adalah perangkat pembelajaran IPA menggunakan ilearning cycle 7E yang diujicobakan pada siswa kelas VII SMP Bilingual Terpadu Krian pada semester ganjil tahun ajaran 2015-2016. Perangkat dikembangkan dengan model pengembangan 4D dan dilakukan ujicoba penerapan perangkat dengan one group pretest-posttest design. Metode pengumpulan data dalam penelitian ini adalah penilaian validitas oleh pakar, penilaian keterbacaan BAS oleh siswa, pengamatan keterlaksanaan RPPdan aktivitas siswa selama pembelajaran oleh pengamat, tes tulis untuk mengetahui peningkatan kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa, dan angket respon yang diisi oleh siswa. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan metode kualitatif dan kuantitatif. Simpulan hasil penelitian adalah perangkat pembelajaran menggunakan learning cycle 7E dinyatakan layak untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir kritis ditinjau dari perangkat yang valid, BAS mudah dipahami, RPP terlaksana baik, kendala pembelajaran ditemukan solusi, kemampuan berpikir kritis meningkat, aktivitas siswa baik, dan respon siswa baik positif. Implikasi penelitian adalah penerapan RPP dengan tahap 7E tidak menurunkan keefektifan ditengah dan akhir pembelajaran jika LKS dan BAS yang mendukung dikembangkan dengan tahap 7E juga. Saran yang diberikan adalah mengembangkan perangkat dengan tahap 7E tidak hanya berlaku untuk RPP, LKS dan BAS juga dikembangkan dengan tahap 7E agar kegiatan siswa lebih terarah sehingga lebih efisien dalam waktu.
