Abstract

The formation of polite character in elementary school students is one of the main objectives of Islamic Religious Education, but its implementation still faces various challenges due to changes in student behavior in the digital era. This study aims to analyze the role of Islamic Religious Education teachers, the implementation of the habit of the four magic words, and the form of polite character that emerges through this habit at Baiturrahman Elementary School, Jember. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study type. The research subjects were determined using purposive sampling involving the principal, Islamic Religious Education teachers, first-grade homeroom teachers, and two first-grade students. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, passive participatory observation, and documentation, then analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman with validity tests through source triangulation and technical triangulation. The results showed that teachers act as role models, guides, and reinforcers of the habit of the four magic words through consistent role models, reminders, and habits. The program successfully formed verbal and behavioral politeness in students' daily interactions in the school environment. It was concluded that the habituation of the four magic words supported by teacher role models and school culture effectively strengthens the formation of polite character in students from elementary school age.
