This study was structured with the aim of improving thematic learning outcomes of mathematics subjects through a problem based learning (PBL) learning model for third grade students of SD Negeri 1 Kragilan,gantiwarno, Klaten for the 2021/2022 academic year. Learning outcomes are the abilities that students have after they receive their learning experiences. This type of research is Classroom Action Research (CAR). The design of this study uses the Kemmis and Mc. Taggart. This research was conducted in the even semester of the 2021/2022 academic year, namely in April. The subjects of this study were third grade students of SD Negeri 1 Kragilan which consisted of 13 students. The object of research is student learning outcomes. Data collection techniques using tests and observations were then analyzed using a quantitative descriptive approach.
The results showed an increase in student learning outcomes, namely in the first cycle of 68.07 (enough), then in the second cycle it increased to 87.30 (very good). This means an increase of 19.23%. Thus, the use of problem based learning (PBL) learning models in Mathematics can improve the learning outcomes of third grade students of SD Negeri 1 Kragilan.
