This is because the teacher only teaches using the lecture method without involving students directly in the learning process so that students' understanding of the material is still relatively low, students are more required to memorize a lot without having to understand the material. Of the 16 students who got high scores only 4 students, while the remaining 12 students got low scores. The purpose of this study was to improve social studies learning outcomes through the application of the Think Pair and Share learning model for fourth grade students of SD Inpres Luaan Tondano.
