The objective is based on the formulation of the problem "how is the effectiveness of local wisdom-based literacy teaching materials for elementary school students?. This study uses a quasi-experimental method using a pre-experimental design with one control group pretest-posttest design. The object of this research is elementary school students in grade 5 at SDN 1 Ciloa Kuningan Regency using a research instrument as a test.
