This study aims to improve mathematics learning outcomes in fractions material for grade 3 students of MIN 1 Jombang by using concrete object teaching aids. The use of teaching aids is expected to help students understand the concept of fractions more easily through real learning experiences. The research method used is Classroom Action Research (CAR) which is carried out in two cycles, where each cycle consists of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects of this study were grade 3 students of MIN 1 Jombang. Data collection was carried out through observation, learning outcome tests, and interviews with students and teachers. The results of the study showed an increase in students' understanding of the concept of fractions after the application of concrete object teaching aids. This is indicated by the increase in the average value of student learning outcomes from the first cycle to the next cycle. In addition, the use of teaching aids also has a positive impact on students' interest and motivation in learning mathematics, so that students are more active and enthusiastic in participating in learning. Thus, the use of concrete object teaching aids can be an alternative effective learning strategy to improve student learning outcomes, especially in understanding fractions material
