Abstract
This research aims to investigate effect of quantum teaching learning model to

enhance students’ conceptual understanding on characteristic material concept.
This study method was experiment with quasy experiment. Subject this research
was fifth grade elementary school. Result of this study found significant score
0,000 < 0,05. It is mean that hypothesis of research was accepted. It can be
concluded Quantum Teaching learning model can improve students’ conceptual
understanding.
