Afterwards, Subadriyah et al. state that literacy learning model is conceptual framework which is used as a guidance to do classroom activities or tutorial learning to enhance skills related to thinking, speaking,  reading and writing to create skill on particular cognitive operation through writing, words, sentences and text in order to be able communicating to fulfil modern society demand. To grow the literacy of language for elementary school students can be done through mesatua culture. Mesatua is an activity which gives a lot of positives impacts in forming children’s characterisation, in which mesatua becomes a method to plant characters education which fulfils the knowledge aspect (cognitive) feeling and action. Balinese language education certainly should be directed for enhancing the student’s ability to communicate by using proper Balinese language, even it is hoped that they are able to communicate in Balinese language appropriately based on anggah-ungguhing basa Bali (the proper rules or regulations of Balinese language) in spoken or written ways.
