Abstract

This research was motivated by the low activity and learning achievement in mathematics of class VI students at SD Negeri 1 Apuan, academic year 2022/2023. To overcome this problem, research was carried out by applying the constructivist learning model. This research aims to increase student activity and learning achievement at the school. By implementing classroom action research which was carried out in two cycles.
