This research is motivated by the low ability of students' understanding of concepts in learning mathematics in class IV elementary school in one of the Bandung City schools. This is because students tend to get bored because there is no variation, the teacher continues to use a scientific approach without something different that makes students excited to learn mathematics. Based on this problem, the researchers overcome it by applying the Realistic Mathematics Education approach. This study aims to improve the mathematical understanding of fourth grade students in elementary schools in one of the Bandung City schools. The research method used was classroom action research Kemmis and MC models. Taggart is done in two cycles. With some stages in one cycle include planning, implementation, observation and reflection. The subjects of this study were fourth grade students in one school in Bandung with 29 students. Collection techniques using observation, tests, and documentation. The data processing used is qualitative with the stages of data reduction, data exposure, and data inference. While quantitative data in the form of test result scores, grade average grades, understanding of mathematical concept indicators, and student learning completeness. The results showed that in the first cycle the average value of students 71 with a percentage of completeness 62% increased to 92, with a percentage of 90% in the second cycle. Based on these results, it was concluded that the application of the Realistic Mathematics Education approach could improve the understanding of mathematical concepts of grade IV elementary school students. Keywords: Realistic Mathematics Education Approach, understanding mathematical concepts, mathematics.
