These behaviors hinder the optimal development of students' potential. Through a comprehensive analysis, the study examines how innovative teaching approaches and collaborative planning can enhance student engagement and achievement. The findings highlight the significance of integrating religious practices with modern educational strategies to foster a holistic learning environment.

MI YMI Wonopringgo 03, known for its consistent student achievements at various levels, serves as a model for effective implementation of the curriculum. The study concludes that tailored educational models and methods significantly contribute to the development of students' interests and talents, leading to improved educational outcomes and the overall quality of the institution.
