This community service activity aims to improve elementary school students' basic Arabic literacy through an interactive training approach. The methods used included literature review, practice-based training, and evaluation, involving 28 students. SDIT Mutiara Ibu aims to equip students with foreign language competencies, both Arabic and English. However, interviews with teachers indicated that students' vocabulary mastery is still limited and the learning methods used tend to be monotonous. Students have not had many learning experiences that integrate foreign vocabulary with real-life contexts, such as saving and simple economic activities. The results of the activity showed significant improvements in students' ability to master Arabic and English vocabulary, their ability to recognize the importance of managing money from an early age, and their mastery of early financial literacy, such as saving. Analysis of participant satisfaction revealed that the majority felt helped by the interactive, relevant, and tailored learning methods. Furthermore, students demonstrated high enthusiasm for the learning activities. Challenges included the duration of the intervention, sample limitations, and the lack of long-term measurement. A comparison of pre- and post-training results confirmed that this intervention had a positive impact on elementary school students' competencies in developing Arabic language literacy. This activity is expected to serve as a reference for the implementation of similar programs in the future. This model is recommended for wider application with further research.
