This study aims to improve the understanding of addition concepts of numbers 1-10 in first-grade elementary school students through the use of number cube learning media. The research method used is an experimental method with a pre-test and post-test design. The research subjects were first-grade students divided into two groups: an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group was taught using number cube learning media, while the control group was taught using conventional methods. Data were collected through tests of understanding the addition concepts of numbers 1-10 before and after learning. The results showed a significant increase in the understanding of addition concepts of numbers 1-10 in the experimental group that used number cube learning media compared to the control group. The use of number cubes provides a concrete and interactive visual representation, thus helping students understand the concept of addition more effectively. This indicates that number cube learning media is effective in improving the understanding of addition concepts of numbers 1-10 in first-grade students. This study recommends the use of number cube learning media as an innovative and effective alternative learning method to improve the understanding of mathematical concepts in young children. Further research can be conducted to investigate the effectiveness of number cube learning media on other mathematical materials and at different educational levels.

Based on the results of the needs analysis of PJOK teachers in class IV SDN Kanigoro 04, teachers use LKS learning media or manual teaching books. LKS or manual textbooks are less interesting because the LKS used is not colorful so the teacher feels that the current media is not enough to support interactive learning. The difficulty that teachers face when making interactive media is that it takes a long time. The purpose of this research is to develop and test interactive e-module learning media on basic movement patterns and create a new learning atmosphere. Researchers used a Research and Development approach with the ADDIE development research model (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The results of media expert validation got an average result of 91.87% which was categorized as very valid, material expert validation got an average result of 95.83% which was categorized as very valid. Small group trials to students obtained an average result of 91.49% categorized as very feasible. Large group trials to students obtained an average result of 90.28% categorized as very feasible. This shows that the use of interactive e-module learning media on basic movement patterns is very feasible to use in learning.
