An important aspect in communication is language skills that support someone in interacting with ease of perception. This study aims to examine the language skills of elementary school children in interacting with teachers and friends at SDN 1 Tambun. The research method uses qualitative research with data collection techniques in the form of observation and interviews. The findings show that most students at SDN 1 Tambun in communicating with teachers use polite and formal language, while with fellow friends they use casual and informal language. Although there are also students who still have difficulty in choosing a language so that they mix casual language and regional languages when trying to speak formally. The level of student activity in speaking is also quite diverse, there are students who actively ask and answer teacher questions in class but there are also students who tend to be passive and silent in class. In overcoming this, teachers have a strategic role to increase self-confidence and courage among students such as opening discussion spaces, telling personal experiences, informal interactions, or with a personal approach. Thus, with support from the environment and teachers, it can support the formation of students' language skills effectively and optimally.
