Abstract

Ethnomathematics is an approach that connects mathematical concepts with elements of local culture. In this context, education and culture are closely interrelated in shaping students’ understanding of mathematics. This study aims to explore mathematical concepts embedded in Ratoh Jaroe Dance, a traditional dance from Aceh, and its potential to support mathematics learning in schools. A qualitative method with an ethnographic approach was employed, involving observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. Data were analyzed through data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the activities in Ratoh Jaroe Dance reflect ethnomathematical practices such as counting, measuring, pattern design, and spatial positioning. Identified mathematical concepts include geometry, set theory, and transformation. The implementation of these findings in extracurricular activities at SMAN 28 Tangerang Regency had a positive impact by enhancing students’ ability to relate mathematics to local culture and encouraging creative thinking.
