Abstract

One of the issues that appear in pluralized societies, as in Indonesia, is tolerance. This is one of the reasons the value of tolerance is made as one of the core competencies in the school curriculum. This study aims to find out children’s tolerant behavior during their play at school. This study first explains the religious tolerance phenomena at school, describes some types of games played by fifth-graders, and shows some of the children’s tolerant behavior during the play. This research is qualitative phenomenological research. The participants of the research were teachers and fifth-grade students in Timor Primary School. The data was obtained using interviews and observation. Data analysis used three stages of Miles and Huberman techniques: data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results showed that some school policies and teachers’ conduct in Timor Primary School fulfill three aspects of tolerance behavior: peace, respect for individual differences, and awareness. The play patterns of fifth-graders in this school include physical, symbolic, socio-drama, and rules games with physics rules, symbolic rules, and symbolic-socio-drama rules. The students also showed some tolerant behavior while playing. We can conclude that Timor Primary School appeared to be a tolerant school. Some school policies and teacher decisions are based on aspects of religious tolerance. Also, some tolerant behavior was reflected in children’s play activities.
