DEVELOPMENT OF TRADITIONAL CHILDREN PLAY BASED INSTRUCTIONAL MODEL TO OPTIMIZE DEVELOPMENT OF KINDERGARTENERS’ FUNDAMENTAL MOTOR SKILL

Traditional children play is a suitable physical activity for instructional mean in kindergarten. The research intends to develop Traditional Children Play based instructional model to optimize development of fundamental motor skills of kindergarteners. This research used research and development approach from Borg & Gall. Research’s subjects were traditional children play in DIY, and kindergartens in DIY. Data were collected by interview, observation, and ducoments analysis. Collected data were analyzed in three steps: organized and reducted, displayed, and summarized and verificated.
