Highlights
This study provided information about students' responses when learning about nature conservation by lecturing and learning-by-game methods
The example given is the conservation of native Indonesian plants and animals that are already threatened with extinction
This was where the researcher hopes that there will be an increase in students' awareness of the importance of conservation after students gain enrichment of knowledge about nature conservation in Indonesia. This is because these elementary school students are the younger generation who are the successors of the Indonesian nation who are sovereign over the natural wealth belonging to their nation. Both of the students and teachers gave positive responses to learn nature conservation conveyed through various games because the learning situation was amusing and unique
