Thus, for learning such as in elementary school (SD) it has not been implemented. According to them, that PAUD students focus more on playing and in that game they will think for themselves related to knowledge. Secondly, 100% have not been implemented in PAUD schools. And there is more playing, singing, and they read and recite prayers and recite short letters in the circles of Islamic foundations and PAUD, and for Christianity the same thing, only by singing and not reciting.
