<![CDATA[Learning mathematics, particularly fractions, often poses challenges for elementary school students due to its abstract nature and level of difficulty. This study aims to improve the understanding and learning outcomes of fourth-grade students at MI Nurul Islam Dasan Baru in fraction material through the use of interactive learning media PhET Simulations. The research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach using Kurt Lewin’s model, which consists of four stages: planning, action, observation, and reflection. The subjects of the study were all fourth-grade students in the 2024/2025 academic year. Data were collected through observation, tests, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively by calculating the average scores and the percentage of learning mastery. The results showed that the use of PhET Simulations significantly improved students’ understanding of fraction concepts, encouraged their active participation during learning, and enhanced overall learning outcomes. Therefore, integrating interactive media such as PhET into mathematics instruction can be an effective solution to overcome students’ learning difficulties and create more meaningful learning experiences.]]>
