Abstract

This study aims to describe the level of learning activity and mathematics learning achievement through the discovery learning model in understanding the concept of measuring the area and circumference of squares and rectangles assisted by unit square media. This study adopts the Classroom Action Research (CAR) methodology, which consists of four phases: planning, implementation of actions, observation, and reflection, which are carried out in two cycles, each consisting of two meeting sessions. The subjects in this study were 24 students from class IVB. Data collection methods include observation, giving questionnaires, tests at the end of each cycle, interviews, and documentation. The findings show a significant increase in active students, increasing from 61.79% with the criteria of "quite often active" in cycle I to 82.15% with the criteria of "very often active" in cycle II. In addition, there was a significant increase in students' mathematics learning achievement, with the average classical score increasing from 69.41% in cycle I to 85.16% in cycle II, accompanied by an increase in the percentage level of classical learning completion from 64.58% in cycle I to 89.58% in cycle II. Thus, the integration of the discovery learning model assisted by unit square media shows an increase in learning activity and mathematics learning achievement of class IVB students at SD Negeri 2 Pliken.
