Abstract

One of the sciences that plays an important role in human life is Mathematics. This becomes a
problem when Mathematics learning achievement needs to be improved in class III at SD Negeri 1
Candirenggo. Based on the results of observations made by researchers, one of the causes is teachers
who do not use a variety of media in learning, and the lack of use of concrete media. This research
aims to describe the effect of using concrete media on the Mathematics learning achievement of class
III students at SD Negeri 1 Candirenggo seen from the learning outcomes and learning activities of
students. The research methods used are observation, documentation and test methods. The data
analysis techniques used in this research are quantitative and qualitative data analysis techniques.
The results of the first cycle of research showed that the percentage of completeness of learning
outcomes reached 67.64%. After implementing the use of concrete media in cycle II, there was a
change, namely the percentage of learning completeness became 85.29%. Meanwhile, looking at the
results of student learning activities in cycle I, the student learning activity score reached 52.94%, and
after implementing the use of concrete media in cycle II, the student learning activity score changed,
namely to 88.23%. Based on the results of this research, it can be concluded that the use of concrete
media has a great influence on improving mathematics learning achievement for class III at SD Negeri
