Abstract

One of the literacy parts is literacy pattern. This pattern forms the literacy habit which could help the students in learning a language. Besides that, many kinds of ethnic backgrounds in Indonesia led to the emergence of local languages. These languages tend to be the mother tongue of the students. Furthermore, in the language learning process, the mother tongue is important because it could affect students’ language ability. Thus, this study aimed at describing: 1) literacy pattern of the students’ parents; 2) students’ mother tongue; 3) the effect of literacy pattern and mother tongue on the language learning. This study was conducted by a mixed method with a sequential strategy. It was conducted in VII Grade classes of Junior High School in the Eastern Bali region. The subjects were parents and students of VII Grade students at Junior High School in the Eastern Bali region. The data analysis used quantitative and qualitative analysis combination. The data collection used observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentary studies. The findings showed that (1) the literacy patterns of the parents during the learning from home were reading literacy pattern and digital literacy pattern, (2) the mother tongue of the students of VII Grade students of Junior High School were Balinese and Indonesian, (3) there was significant effect between literacy pattern and language learning, while mother tongue had no significant effect on the students learning ability. Therefore, it is suggested to the parents that the literacy pattern should be implemented in accompanying the students in learning from home.
