- Abstract
- The aim of this research is to improve the mathematical ability the young children through the problem solving approach. The subject of this research were kindergarten students of Graup B Al Hikmah Bintara Kindergarten of West Bekasi. The method used in this research was action research. In which, the procedure of the research were consisted of fair step us followed model by Kemmis and Mc Taggarct's which was modified by Martini Jamaris. The model of this research is in: a). planning, b) action, c) observation, and d) reflection. The data collection was conducted through observation, assessment, document analysis and voice or picture recording. The data were analyzed by using quantitative and qualitative analysis. The result of the reseach showed that the mathematical skills of the young children were increased it was prowed by both the first and second cycle assessment of the contain aspects of mathematical skills. The conclusion of this research is by using a problem solving approach can significantly increase yaung children's' mathematical skills.
