Abstract

Variations of materials and supporting tools are substantial to the learning of physical education subject which aims to improve the students’ gross motor skills. Innovations of equipment which are capable to increase the students’ interest in learning are necessary in order to optimize their motor development. This research offers a solution in the form of a model development, a learning-through-games model utilizing modified tools. The development of MODEREN was carried out by using Research and Development design through 4 stages: needs analysis, planning, development, and testing. Data analysis was performed by using descriptive statistic techniques. The results showed that the application of MODEREN model improved the gross motor skills of students with mental retardation. This model increased the student’s initiative in learning, hence attempting more of the moves being taught. In addition, through MODEREN tools organization model, students are involved to learn in groups and inciting interactions and cooperation among students throughout the learning process.
