This study aims to describe the use of concrete media in Mathematics to increase learning interest IV at state elementary school 16 South Halmahera. Initial classroom observations revealed low student interest in fractions, characterized by a lack of attention, interest, and engagement during learning. This classroom action research followed the Kemmis and McTaggart model, involving 22 fourth-grade students as subjects. The study evaluated changes in learning interest from the pre-action stage through Cycle I and Cycle II. The results demonstrated a significant increase in student learning interest, rising from 35% (Very Poor) before the action to 61% (Fair) in Cycle I, and reaching 82% (Good) in Cycle II. In conclusion, the application of concrete media effectively enhances students' learning interest in mathematics.
