| Abstract: | This study is aimed to analyze the readability level of the fourth grade textbooks in Javanese language used in Madiun, East Java, Indonesia then connect with student learning outcomes. The data were obtained from 18 students, comprising 6 male and 12 female students between 10 and 12 years old. The secondary data were obtained from textbooks and worksheets used in primary schools. The data were analyzed using the Fry's Graph and the Klose's technique to determine the readability level of the textbooks. The results of data analysis indicated that the Javanese language textbooks had a score of 9.075, meaning that the textbooks are too difficult for the fourth grade students. This results in students having difficulty absorbing the material, so that students' learning outcomes in Javanese are below the required standard. The success of learning the Javanese language depends on an appropriate level of readability. |
