Tujuan penelitian ini adalah meningkatkan kemampuan komunikasi matematika siswa kelas V SD Sambiroto menggunakan pendekatan Realistic Mathematic Education (RME) berbantuan alat peraga manipulatif. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian tindakan kelas dengan subjek penelitian guru dan 32 orang siswa. Penelitian berlangsung selama 2 siklus, setiap siklus terdiri 4 tahapan yaitu perencanaan, pelaksanaan, observasi dan refleksi. Variabel bebas pada penelitian ini adalah pendekatan RME berbantuan alat peraga manipulatif. Sedangkan variabel terikatnya yaitu kemampuan komunikasi matematika siswa. Data penelitian dikumpulkan dengan wawancara, observasi, tes, dan dokumentasi. Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis data kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya peningkatan keterampilan mengajar guru dengan pendekatan RME berbantuan alat peraga manipulatif pada siklus I sebesar 2,91 (kriteria “Baik”) meningkat di siklus II 3,51 (kriteria ”Sangat Baik”), adanya peningkatan aktivitas belajar siswa pada siklus I 2,85 (kriteria “Baik”) menjadi 3,18 (kriteria “Sangat Baik”) pada siklus II, terjadi peningkatan kemampuan komunikasi matematika siswa pada siklus I sebesar 75% dengan kriteria baik menjadi 84,37% dengan kriteria sangat baik pada siklus II. Kata kunci: pendekatan RME, komunikasi matematika, luas trapesium dan layang-layang. ABSTRACT The purpose of this research is to improve the student’s mathematics communication ability on fifth grade SD Sambiroto by using RME approach with manipulative media. This research is a classroom action research. The subjects are the teacher and 32 students. The research consists of 2 cycles, that is cycle I and cycle II. Each cycle consists of four steps: plan, action, observation, and reflection. The independent variable in this research is Realistic Mathematic Education approach with manipulative media, while the dependent variable is the mathematics communication ability. Data was collected by interview techniques, observation, tests, and documentation. The data analysis of the research was quantitative and qualitative analysis. The result shows that the teacher teaching skill with RME approach assisted by manipulative media was improved from 2.91 (Good criteria) on cycle I to 3.51 (Very Good criteria) on cycle II, the student learning activity is increasing from 2,85 (Good criteria) on cycle I to 3,18 (Very Good criteria) on cycle II, and there was an improvement of student’s mathematics communication ability from 75% (Good criteria) on cycle I to 84.37% (Very Good criteria) in cycle II. Keywords: RME approach, communication ability, the are of trapezoid and kite.
