THE HABITUAL PATTERN OF MEMORIZING SHORT SURAHS FOR CHILDREN USING THE VERSE LINKING METHOD AT THE AGE OF 4-5 YEARS IN GROUP A AT RA AL QODIR
Objective: This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Verse-Linking Method in habituating early childhood (ages 4-5) to memorize short Quranic verses at RA Al Qodir. The study explores the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages of this method. Methods: A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, involving 25 students at RA Al Qodir. Data were collected through observations, interviews with teachers and the principal, and document analysis. The analysis process followed Miles and Huberman’s model, including data reduction, presentation, and interpretation. Results: The research identified three key stages in the memorization process: planning, implementation, and evaluation. During the planning stage, a specialized mentor guided the students, and during implementation, children engaged in a structured routine of reciting and memorizing short verses.
