ABSTRACT

Mathematics learning has not been able to connect the ideas of mathematics with culture. Ethnomathematics learning is introduced to fill in this gap, as it connects cultural and mathematical concepts through mathematics as a cultural product. This study aimedto discover students’responses by integrating a Sundanese game named endog-endogan in their mathematics learning. By involving 82 teachers and 273 primary school students, this study employed a qualitative descriptive method using classroom observation and interview. The results revealed that the students showed positive responses in which they were able to play together with other students. In addition, the 163 students felt excited about playing the game, 49 students were enthusiastic about learning mathematics, 49 students argued that learning mathematics was easy, and 12 students reduced misconceptions in subtraction operation. To conclude, mathematical abstractions could be reduced and promote Indonesian cultural products in the development of mathematical learning innovations.
