Abstract

The results of PISA (Program of International Student Assessment) revealed that Indonesia students still have a low literacy level. This research aimed at investigating the implementation of Primary English Literacy activities at elementary school and finding out the effect of the activities toward the students’ language competency in English. This quasi-experimental design was implemented at a primary school in Singaraja, Bali. The data were collected using English tests and supported with observation. The implementation of literacy activities was applied in three stages: 1) the introduction stage; 2) the implementation stage; and 3) the establishment stage. All of the stages gave a good impact on the students’ attitude and the students’ language competence. The result of the paired t-test showed that the primary literacy activities gave a significant effect on the students’ language competence. It implied that the literacy activities are suitable to be used for teaching English at primary school.
