Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of experimenting with making lontar leaf accessories and Sanggolo hat replicas on students’ creativity in thematic learning in fourth grade at Inpres Padolo Elementary School. This research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method. The sample consisted of fourth-grade students selected purposively. The results show that the experiment involving traditional local crafts significantly enhanced students’ creativity, both cognitively and psychomotorically. Students became more enthusiastic, demonstrated originality in ideas, and were able to integrate local cultural elements into their creations. Therefore, this approach is effective in fostering student creativity and enriching thematic learning.
