Abstract

This study aims to identify problem-solving strategies by fifth grade elementary school students in solving word problems. This research uses a qualitative research approach with a case study research type. Data collection techniques were carried out by means of assignments, observation, interviews, and documentation. The data analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing or verification. This study found four strategies that students used in solving word problems about arithmetic, namely applying reasoning, multiplying a set of objects, adding parts, and dividing the whole by the unit.The results of this study have implications in learning, namely for teachers it is recommended to provide opportunities for students to explore and use their respective student strategies first in solving word problems.This is done before the teacher explains the correct solution with, so as to avoid learning and teaching that requires students to imitate the teacher's word problem solving strategy.
