The background of this study is the low motivation and learning outcomes of students in mathematics. The reason is that the methods used by educators in class are less diverse and do not use interesting learning materials. As a result, students show low motivation, which results in poor academic results. The basis for this observation comes from student performance evaluations, where most scores are below the KKM threshold (75). This study applies a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, which takes place over two cycles. Each cycle includes two sessions. The subjects of this study consisted of 22 students of grade VI - A of UPT SD Negeri 08 Tanjung Seri. The criteria for completeness in this study are an average class score of around 75 and learning completeness of at least 85% of the total number of students. When teaching aids are used in teaching and learning activities, there is potential for increasing student motivation and learning outcomes. In the pre-cycle, only 7 students out of 22 (31.82%) students obtained a complete score. In cycle 1, the number of students who completed the test increased to 12 students (54.55%) and in cycle 2, it became 20 students (90.90%). From the description above, it can be concluded that the use of teaching aids can increase the motivation and learning outcomes of class VI - A students in mathematics at UPT SD 08 Tanjung Seri.
