Abstract

Numeracy literacy skills as knowledge and skills that are closely related to understanding numbers and symbols. Based on the results of initial observations conducted by researchers at ABA Limbung Kindergarten, Gowa Regency, early childhood in group B has a lack of numerical literacy skills, this can be seen from the low understanding of numbers and number symbols, especially in everyday life. To overcome the low numerical literacy of children, learning media is needed that can be interesting and fun, namely apron media. In accordance with the formulation of the problem posed, the purpose of this study is to find out: 1) Overview of children’s numerical literacy 2) An overview of the implementation of creative apron media; 3) The effect of creative apron media activities on Numeracy Literacy of children aged 5–6 years. The type of research used in this study is Quasi Experimental Design research. The research design used is using the Nonequivalent Control Group Design model using two test groups with one group Then from the results of this study it was found that there was a significant influence before being given the treatment of learning activities to recognize and count images according to the theme through creative apron media with after being given treatment in children aged 5–6 years. The result of the asymp Sig (2-tailed) value obtained is 0.027 while the result of the calculation of the initial numerical ability of the control group obtained an asymp Sig (2-tailed) value of 0.
