Foreign language writing can be a challenging and emotionally complex experience for learners. In fact, the literature has shown that learners’ emotions significantly influence foreign language acquisitionDespite the acknowledged influence of emotions in language learning, research specifically examining the interplay between proficiency, enjoyment, and boredom in EFL writing contexts, particularly among Indonesian university students, remains scarce. This correlational study investigated the interrelations between language proficiency, foreign language writing enjoyment (FLWE), and foreign language writing boredom (FLWB) among university students in Indonesia. The Oxford Quick Placement Test (QPT) was utilized to assess the participants’ proficiency level, while FLWE and FLWB scales were used to measure emotional dimensions. The findings revealed moderate positive correlations between proficiency and FLWE (r = .48, p < .01) and moderate negative correlations between proficiency and FLWB (r = -.58, p < .001). Additionally, a significant inverse relationship between FLWE and FLWB (r = -.53, p = .001) was identified. These findings suggest that higher proficiency fosters greater enjoyment and reduces boredom in writing activities. Implications for educators include scaffolding tasks to match proficiency levels and fostering positive learning environments to enhance engagement.

This article explains the practice of prayer which is a problem for many children at Al-Fikr Kindergarten, Sumotuwo Village. Guidance in the practice of prayer is very important to teach, because the Day of Judgment will question the practice of prayer. This assistance aims to teach children to better understand how to pray properly and correctly. The object or target of this assistance is the children of Al-Fikr Kindergarten, Sumotuwo Village, Balongbendo District, Sidoarjo. The method used in this assistance activity is Participatory Action Research (PAR) which includes three components, namely, the research component, the behavioral component, and the participation component used in this service and assistance program. In its implementation, this assistance was carried out on Thursday, August 8, 2024.

The result of this assistance is that children understand better how to pray properly, as seen from the difference in children's prayers before receiving assistance and afterward, which is much better. This assistance activity received a warm welcome from the Ustadzah of Al-Fikr Kindergarten, Sumotuwo Village and the guardians of the children of Al-Fikr Kindergarten and in its implementation the children were very active and enthusiastic in participating in learning activities, thus showing a change towards a better direction than before.

Education plays a crucial role in shaping an individual's personality and character, including through character education that instills moral and ethical values. Character education in Kindergarten (TK) is very important in forming the foundational personality of children, such as responsibility, discipline, and respect for others. Teachers play a key role in instilling civic disposition (citizenship attitude) by integrating Pancasila values into the learning process. This study aims to describe the role of Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) teachers in instilling civic disposition at TK Peupado Malanuza. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through observation and interviews. The results show that teachers implement civic disposition through activities such as making a Garuda eagle collage, singing the national anthem, and recognizing national symbols, which aim to instill Pancasila values. Teachers also emphasize discipline through activities such as tidying up toys and working together in group tasks. This study demonstrates that the implementation of civic disposition has successfully shaped the children’s character, instilling discipline, responsibility, and love for the country. For sustainability, teachers need to conduct evaluations and involve parents in supporting the values taught.
