The approach used is descriptive qualitative with visual analysis techniques. The research subjects consist of ten works from fourth-grade students, analyzed based on four main aspects: line, shape, color, and composition.

The low interest in reading among children in Indonesia is a serious challenge in developing quality human resources in the future. A culture of literacy that has not been formed since early childhood has an impact on the weakness of children's critical thinking, analytical skills, and imagination. This article aims to examine various approaches to child empowerment in increasing interest in reading and literacy through literature studies. Several strategies analyzed include reading corners, school literacy movements, family-based reading programs, and creative approaches such as storytelling methods and the use of digital media. The results of the review show that a participatory approach that actively involves families, schools, and communities has proven to be more effective in increasing children's interest in reading and fostering sustainable literacy habits. In addition, the provision of relevant, varied, and enjoyable reading media for children is an important factor in strengthening a reading culture. Cross-sector synergy is needed to create a conducive literacy ecosystem from an early age.  

Socializing and improving literacy movement skills in schools have not yielded maximum results because of the low level of mentoring and training to improve literacy awareness and skills among students and teachers. Many teachers still assume that literacy is the responsibility of Indonesian language subject teachers. In addition, reading materials and texts available in schools have not been optimally utilized to develop students' literacy skills. The purpose of this study was to determine the use of folklore as a medium for strengthening Indonesian language literacy in the world of education. This study used a library research method to analyze the use of folklore as a medium for strengthening Indonesian language literacy. The results of the study showed that folklore has great potential in strengthening Indonesian language literacy. Folklore not only functions as an entertaining medium, but also as an effective learning tool to develop students' reading and writing skills. Through folklore, students can enrich their vocabulary, understand text structures, and improve their understanding of good and correct Indonesian. In addition, folklore also teaches moral, social, and cultural values ​​that are very relevant to students' daily lives. By introducing values ​​such as honesty, hard work, and respect for parents, folklore can educate students to have a good attitude in their lives. Folklore also plays an important role in introducing and preserving local culture, strengthening the nation's cultural identity, and increasing pride in Indonesia's cultural heritage.

Reading plays an important role in building a literate generation that is able to improve academic skills, broaden horizons and maintain local cultural identity. However, the low interest in reading in Indonesia, especially among students, is a big challenge. Internal factors, such as student motivation, and external factors, such as family and school support, are highly influential. Strategies such as reading for pleasure, edutainment and the School Literacy Movement are effective in fostering a reading culture as well as shaping students' characters, such as honesty, empathy and critical thinking. Challenges in implementation include limited reading materials, teacher training, technology support and collaboration with the community. Strategic steps, such as enrichment of reading materials, intensive teacher training and community involvement, are needed to overcome them. With good literacy, students can think critically, have character and contribute positively. This research uses a qualitative approach through a literature study to examine the importance of literacy culture.

In line with the rapid advancement of technology, there has been a significant decline in reading interest across various age groups—both adults and children. One of the main contributing factors is the increasing addiction to digital devices, which has shifted attention away from reading activities and learning responsibilities at home. In response to this issue, we have initiated a movement aimed at revitalizing the spirit of literacy through the establishment and development of the Baitul Ilmi Community Reading Center located in Gesang Village. As an initial step, we have launched a book donation program, open to anyone who wishes to contribute books to support the sustainability of this literacy initiative. Based on our preliminary study, the primary target audience of this program includes children at the kindergarten and elementary school levels. To enhance their engagement and participation, we have adopted the field trip method as our key strategy. This method has proven to effectively increase children's enthusiasm and has received a positive response from the local community, particularly from parents. This initiative is also supported by various community stakeholders, including village authorities, the Family Welfare Empowerment Team (TP PKK), and the Gesang Village Youth Organization (Karang Taruna), all of whom are committed to fostering a culture of literacy from an early age to ensure a brighter future for the next generation.

The pedagogical competence of Catholic religious education teachers in implementing the School Literacy Movement (SLM) is crucial for enhancing students' literacy skills, which contribute to character development. This study aims to describe the implementation of the pedagogical competence of Catholic religious education teachers in the school literacy movement at SD Negeri 004 Datah Bilang Ulu. This qualitative study employed interviews, observations, and documentation to collect data from 10 informants, consisting of Catholic religious education teachers, homeroom teachers, the principal, and students. The collected data were analyzed using interactive analysis, starting from data collection, reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the implementation of the pedagogical competence of Catholic STRATEGI PEMASARAN YANG DILAKUKAN DI PLAZA TUNJUNGAN III SURABAYA DALAM MEMASARKAN SEMUA PRODUKNYA 2 Lumen - VOLUME 1, NO. 1, JUNI 2022 religious education teachers in SLM includes: (1) literacy guidance outside of school, (2) extending literacy learning to the home, (3) introducing basic literacy, and (4) using creative teaching methods. This shows that Catholic religious education teachers are capable of understanding students' learning characteristics, using diverse and adaptive teaching methods, and communicating effectively to facilitate efficient learning in supporting students' literacy skills. However, based on the evaluation results, the SLM program at this school is still in its initial implementation phase or habituation phase. This indicates that the school is not yet fully prepared to implement SLM comprehensively, primarily due to a lack of resources, the roles of teachers, the principal, and community participation that have not been maximized, as well as the need for increased government support. This means that while the school is committed, it has not yet implemented it according to the established guidelines and has not reached the stage of providing innovations and becoming a driver for advancing SLM.
