This review sought to investigate the effect of sports on preschool-aged children’s physical and mental growth and development. Preschool age (3-5 years) is a critical development period for young children. There is accumulating evidence that children in their infancy are growing up greatly, mentally and physically. Early childhood is devoted to academic learning as much as physical activity and play. Thus, continuous healthy development should be cultivated at a young age. As part of the long-term development, sports have been found to have a positive impact on children both physically and mentally. The search range is limited to target preschool children and affective sports based on both gross/fine motor skills and cognitive/and social-emotional development. Gross motor development focuses mainly on all physical movements that involve larger muscles, while fine motor development focuses on smaller muscle groups. These developments allow children to do work that involves body side through balance, coordination, control, and movement. In fact, regular exercise affects brain development in these ways. Behaviors include memory, attention, concentration, and being able to follow instructions that directly or indirectly lead to production. The search was also limited in these developmental areas. Gross and fine motor skills encompass physical movements like bending and throwing, which are crucial for brain development. Regulating body sides aids in developing both gross motor and cognitive skills, such as attention and planning. Deficits in gross motor skills may lead to negative developmental outcomes. Evidence shows that play, gestures, shapes, and devices predict readiness in literacy, spelling, and math. Children must cultivate both primary and fine motor skills to improve physically and cognitively. Proficiency in skills related to writing formation is essential. Additionally, vocabulary plays a significant role in cognitive development, involving flexible thinking, memory control, and language management. Research highlights the importance of language in individual development.

According to Law No. 20 of 2003 concerning the National Education System, education is a conscious and planned effort to create a learning atmosphere and learning process so that students actively develop their potential to have the spiritual power of religious rituals, self-control, personality, intelligence, noble morals, and the necessary skills. by himself, society, nation, and state. Learning media is a tool in the teaching and learning process that conveys messages and clarifies material to help the learning process. Observations carried out at SDN Sukamulya still used media such as pictures on paper or were only guided by the textbooks used. From these results, students had no interest in the learning process if they only used paper media. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of learning videos on interest in learning mathematics for class V at SDN Sukamulya. The research method used was an experiment with a quantitative approach design to determine how variable the results were. From the pretest results, it was 23.64%, and the posttest results increased to 25.76%.

This study sought to examine and evaluate the average learning outcomes of students who received instruction in a system of two-variable linear equations using either the direct learning model or the blended learning model. The research employed the posttest-only control design. The participants in this study comprised of two groups: class VIII-A, an Experimental class consisting of 17 students, and class VIII-B, a control class consisting of 17 students at SMP Negeri 4 Touluaan. The data collected pertains to the posttest outcomes in both the Experiment and Control groups, indicating an average learning outcome of 85.29 for the Experiment group and 77.94 for the Control group. The normality test for the data is satisfied when the data follows a normal distribution. The study yielded results indicating a significant level of 0.05, with the obtained t-value of 1.89098 being greater than the critical t-value of 1.694. According to the findings of this study, students who engage in Blended Learning exhibit superior learning outcomes in the context of acquiring proficiency in solving systems of linear equations with two variables, as compared to students who rely solely on direct instruction.
