Implementation of Mathematics Learning Through Media Arrange Smart Dice to Improve Counting Ability in Early Childhood

The implementation of mathematics learning in some kindergartens in the city of Padang has not developed optimally. While in Rahmah Abadi Kindergarten that learning mathematics, especially numeracy has been well developed. The purpose of this study was to describe the implementation of mathematical learning using smart dice media for children's numeracy in Rahmah Abadi Kindergarten. The research method used was descriptive approach qualitative. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that the implementation of mathematics learning using smart dice stacking media in kindergarten Rahmah Abadi was a child who was able to recognize numbers, count numbers 1-10 and simple summation.&#x0D; Keywords: Media Arrange Smart Dice, Counting Ability&#x0D; References&#x0D; Arikunto, S.
