Abstract
This research was aimed to develop a model of Science Teaching Plan (STP) to increase knowledge and appreciation of student about existing turtles. The model focused on fifth grade class of elementary school (SD), and duration of each STP was 80 minutes using eight live turtle specimens (D. subplana, A. cartilaginea M. emys, H. spinosa, N. platynota, C. odhamii, S. crassiocollis, and C. amboinensis) and printed materials. Posttest and attitude measurement were performed separately one week after completing the STP. Fifteen science teachers participated on the workshop to socialize the model, and then each of them implemented it at their classes which were involved the amount of 515 students. Quantitative data revealed that average score of pretest is 47.5 that means majority of students were not know well the reptiles. Achievements of the STP were calculated by gap between the both tests; it revealed that knowledge of students (63.8) about the matter increased (35.2%) significantly after the implementation. Meanwhile degree of appreciation concerning the existing turtles was 47.4 which classified as “excellent” and has a correlation (r=0.6) with the score of posttest. It can be concluded that the model can increase significantly the knowledge of SD students about the matter which is linked with the degree of their appreciation concerning the existing turtles.
