Abstract

Background: The interaction between Chinese culture and local culture produces a unique cultural synergy, which broadens students' understanding of diversity. Learning rooted in local culture also strengthens the values of tolerance and the formation of multicultural identities among elementary school students.
Purpose: This study aims to examine the acculturation of Chinese culture as an alternative to Natural and Social Sciences learning at SD Kalianyar I, Bangil.
Method: Using a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods, this study presents the real form of acculturation results in physical forms such as architecture, household furniture, and culinary, as well as non-physical elements such as language, customs, and art performances.  The sample consisted of 36 fifth-grade students enrolled in science and social studies. Data processing used NVivo 15.
Result: The research findings show that students can identify, understand, and appreciate cultural heritage in their environment through contextual and exploratory learning activities.
Theoretical implication: In the context of Natural and Social Sciences learning, Chinese cultural acculturation can be raised as learning material in both tangible and intangible forms.
Practical implication: The existence of Chinese culture around the school plays an important role as a learning medium that supports the instillation of diversity values and the enrichment of Natural and Social Sciences material.
