CUISENAIRE LEARNING MEDIA FOR ADDING,SUBTRACTING,MULTIPLYING, AND DIVIDING INTEGERS

This study aims to describe the manufacture and use of Cuisenaire rod learning media
for understanding the concepts of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of
integers for elementary school students. The research method used is literature study,
which is a series of activities related to the methods of collecting library data, reading
and recording, and processing research materials. This research uses a qualitative
approach. Data sources and research results in library research in the form of a
description. Data sources are bibliographic or come from various literature, including
books, journals, newspapers, personal documents, etc. The research results are that the
utilization of Cuisenaire rod media is more optimized on learning in elementary
schools, especially in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of integers
because Cuisenaire rod media can help understand and can concrete the concept of
numbers. In addition, it can be used as reference material for research on learning
addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of integers by utilizing different
learning media.
