Abstract

Reading has an important role in life. In Indonesia, beginning reading is introduced from the first grade in elementary schools, including learning of Javanese. Unfortunately, many Javanese children are increasingly strange to the language. Therefore, the learning model chosen must be appropriate. Based on the results of research on schools in the ex-residency area of Surakarta, the most widely use of learning models is spelling with very limited textbooks. The teacher's orientation is only to make students read regardless of whether students' interest in reading grows or not. This is unfortunate because of the important role of motivation to learning outcomes. Therefore, it is very necessary for teachers to pay attention to other factors such as children's learning motivation, appropriate children's reading materials, and other factors so that orientation of Javanese beginning reading not only produces children who can read but also like to read.
