Abstract
The urgency of doing this research is as an innovation for educators to be able to make efforts to preserve local wisdom in the form of a traditional kite game by implication it in mathematics lessons that can make learning activities fun. The purpose of this research is to introduce and preserve traditional games which are the heritage of the Indonesian nation by implementing and integrating the traditional kite game into mathematics learning in geometry material in the fourth grade of Primary school. The sample used is students with a total of 80 active students. This study uses a mix method research with explanatory design with SPSS 25 which examines the descriptive, differences, and relationships of students' interests and attitudes towards learning mathematics on geometry material that is integrated with the traditional kite game. The results of the statistical T-test of product and service solutions show that each school has different interests and process skills for each student. by doing a correlation test it was found that there was a relevant relationship between students' interest in learning in process skills. So, the implications of this research are to foster better interest and skills in students with educators being able to make learning fun through the traditional game of kites.
