Abstract

This paper aims to explain the description of cultural wisdom in educating children in classical stories semiotically. The problem is motivated by the phenomenon of the need for classical stories to be interpreted in a semiotic manner to get a better and meaningful picture of the phenomenon of children’s education by story characters. In my previous research, there are many classic stories that describe children’s education, but in this paper a description of children’s education is presented by the character of the story of Bundo Kandung in the Kaba Cindua Mato story, which has been famous for a long time when it was still told orally until this kaba story has also been published. Printed repeatedly. The research method used is descriptive and technical explanation is semiotic where quotes from stories are interpreted as semiotic symbols that show signs that can produce interpretations related to cultural wisdom in educating children. The discussion contains data from stories and interpretations of cultural wisdom in educating children to pray, methods of educating children, trying to educate children, clear strategies and materials, making children take the initiative, and humanist education. The interpretation of cultural wisdom is considered very relevant in education for modern life, which is not only oriented to globalization but also strongly adheres to local cultural values which have become the flagship of story-supporting communities. This paper can also be submitted as a material for developing character education for students and as a material for developing literary language education so that it becomes an education based on the nation’s noble cultural values.
