This study aims to improve students' discipline in performing congregational prayers through the application of reward and punishment techniques. This study uses a classroom action research (CAR) method with two cycles. The subjects of the study were students of Class III of SD Negeri 094166 Sidotani. The actions taken include: 1) giving praise or gifts to disciplined students; 2) giving reprimands or educational consequences to students who violate the rules. The results of the study indicate that the application of reward and punishment techniques is effective in improving students' discipline in performing congregational prayers. This is indicated by a significant increase in the number of students who are present and on time in congregational prayers.
