Abstract

This research is based on the fact that Social Science learning activities in schools are still far from achieving the learning objectives. The low flexibility and understanding of Social Science subject in primary school is a result of the implementation of monotonous learning model. The lack of variation in social science learning causes this subject to be considered uninteresting to learn for students. This research uses Kemmis and Taggart's Classroom Action Research model. This model focuses on four stages of research: the planning, implementation and observation, reflection, and revision stages. The findings of this research indicate that primary school teacher needs to use suitable learning model to deliver social science lessons, so that the learning becomes effective, hence better results. © Serials Publications.
