Abstract

Verification and assessment of the issues encountered during the learning process are key components of critical thinking abilities, which enable kids to solve difficulties using convincing, logical, and rational arguments. When tackling issues in learning activities, students who possess critical thinking skills can comprehend the situation and provide acceptable and lucid conclusions and answers. Early childhood critical thinking is the main topic of this study. This study uses a quantitative method and is descriptive in nature. Research findings showed that PAUD Terpadu Unilak Golden School, with a critical thinking skills level of 67%, was included in the criterion as fairly good. Data gathering methods included observation, interview, and recording procedures.
