This Classroom Action Research (CAR) aimed to improve the learning activities and outcomes of fourth-grade students at MIN 1 Solok Selatan in science lessons, particularly on the topic of light properties, through the application of the Experiential Learning model. The research subjects were 14 students (6 boys and 8 girls). The study was conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The instruments used were observation sheets for learning activities and achievement tests. The findings revealed a significant improvement in both students’ engagement and learning outcomes. Student activity increased from 67% (fairly active) in the first cycle to 87% (highly active) in the second cycle. The average score rose from 66.4 in the first cycle to 82.1 in the second cycle, with class mastery increasing from 57% to 93%. These results confirm that the Experiential Learning model is effective in enhancing students’ learning activities and achievements in understanding the concept of light properties.
