<![CDATA[This study aims to determine whether the use of an inclined mat can improve the learning outcomes of fourth-year pupils at State Primary School 02 Babadan in the forward roll skill. The research was motivated by low learning outcomes, particularly in the psychomotor and affective domains, as well as the lack of varied teaching media in physical education. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method and a one-group pretest-posttest design was employed. The population consisted of all 17 fourth-year pupils, selected through saturated sampling. Data were collected through cognitive, affective, and psychomotor tests. Descriptive analysis showed an increase in average scores across all domains. The paired t-test results indicated no significant improvement in the cognitive domain (p = 0.136), but a significant improvement in the affective domain (p = 0.015). The Wilcoxon signed-rank test revealed a significant improvement in the psychomotor domain (p = 0.002), with 13 pupils showing increased scores. In conclusion, the use of an inclined mat is effective in improving students’ affective and psychomotor learning outcomes in forward roll gymnastics, although it does not significantly affect cognitive understanding. This research recommends the inclined mat as an innovative and practical teaching aid for primary school physical education.]]>
