The research aims to analyze the effectiveness of mathematics learning through the realistic mathematics education approach in learning the concept of counting integers in grade VI elementary school students. The research used a quasi-experiment with one pretest postets design. The research involved 32 grade VI students at SDN 205 Neglasari, Coblong District, Bandung City. The research instrument is in the form of a multiple-choice test that includes addition and subtraction of decimal numbers. Research shows that the RME approach is effective in producing a significant improvement in students' learning completeness in the addition and subtraction of decimal integers, as well as improving mathematical problem-solving, self-efficacy, reasoning, and mathematical literacy. RME encourages students to recognize the practical application of mathematical concepts through real-world contexts and cultural elements, as well as to cultivate creative and imaginative thinking skills so that they can be an important strategy in improving mathematics education in primary schools.
