This study aims to analyze the learning difficulties of fifth grade students of SD Islam Babussalam Pekanbaru in understanding the material of the ecosystem of living things. The method used is qualitative with a case study design, involving 20 students and teachers through observation, interviews, and tests. The results show that students have difficulties in five aspects: interpreting (40%), exemplifying (60%), classifying (20%), inferencing (50%), and explaining (50%). These difficulties are caused by a lack of understanding of concepts and the use of complex scientific terms. As a solution, it is recommended to apply varied learning methods, increase interaction, and utilize learning media, including videos, which can be accessed at any time. This study highlights the importance of developing appropriate learning media to improve students' understanding of science material.
