During the language acquisition period at the age of elementary school children, students will have two languages, namely their mother tongue and Indonesian. The language contact that occurs in a child creates a mutual influence between the mother tongue and Indonesian, the mutual influence between the mother tongue and Indonesian means that the mother tongue influences Indonesian, or vice versa. That way the communication between the teacher and here uses two languages where students communicate using Indonesian while students use their mother tongue and Indonesian combined. Therefore this study aims to determine the use of mother tongue as a supporting communication tool in the learning process and also to know the role of mother tongue in supporting the learning process.
