Increasing Literacy Using Drama Activities as Alternative Methods for Malay Language Teaching and Facilitation among Dyslexia Students

This study was conducted to highlight the method in drama as one of the alternative approaches in teaching and facilitation for primary students with special needs focusing on level 2 in dyslexia. This study looked into how the Malay Language's teaching and learning facilitation can improve their literacy abilities. This research applied two cycles of Kemmis action research. A drama activity module using the Environment and Green Technology theme has been modified based on the Malaysian National Standard Curriculum for Special Education in Primary Schools (KSSRPK) for learning disabilities by referring to the Standard Curriculum and Assessment Document (DSKP) in Malay Language subject. Data collection and structured interviews were organized by observing eight participants who were the respondents. Analysis of the findings of this study has shown that the involvement of drama activities has shown increased alertness and interest in learning the Malay Language. These activities have stimulated the joy of learning in the students. This study proved that the drama method could contribute to communication skills to improve students' literacy abilities, especially in reading and reasoning. The method introduced has fulfilled the policy highlighted by the Ministry of Education Malaysia in implementing Standard Curriculum for Primary School teaching and learning strategies through the Learning through Play (BMB) approach specifically for Students with Special Needs (MBK).
