Abstract

The purpose of this community service is to build an understanding of the importance of imagination in enhancing mathematical communication in early childhood. Through the storytelling method, this training activity aims to provide insights to the teachers at Ibn Khawarizm Kindergarten on how to utilize storytelling in mathematics education. Before the training, 20 participants were given a pre-test to assess their initial understanding of their pedagogical knowledge, while a post-test was administered after the training to evaluate the changes. The pre-test results showed that participants had a limited understanding of the application of storytelling in mathematics teaching, with an average score of 60%. After the training, there was a significant improvement in participants' abilities, with post-test scores reaching 85% for understanding basic mathematical concepts and 80% for the ability to integrate storytelling into teaching. Participants' confidence in teaching mathematics using creative methods also increased from 65% in the pre-test to 92% in the post-test. The impact of this training is expected to enhance teachers' mathematical communication skills, which will, in turn, influence the development of mathematical communication skills in children in the classroom.
