Abstract
This study aims to analyze the steps for solving mathematical problems by students' understanding of the geometric material in story problems based on the Polya technique. This research was conducted in one of the Islamic elementary schools in Batu City on six students in grade 6. The approach taken is to use a descriptive qualitative approach. The research was carried out using triangulation methods, namely observing the problem-solving process, interviews, and reviewing documents (students' work). Interviews in this study were conducted with several students, namely two high ability people, two low ability people, and two medium ability people. The analysis was carried out by concluding the data obtained based on the observations that have been made. The study results showed that the Polya technique showed different results on the results of solving the problems of each category of students in solving story problems about the area of squares and rectangles. Based on these results, it can be seen that students' understanding of the geometry material on the story problem.

Summary
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis langkah-langkah penyelesaian permasalahan matematika oleh peserta didik dan pemahaman peserta didik mengenai materi geometri pada soal cerita berdasarkan teknik Polya. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan SD Islam Sabilul Khoir Batu pada 6 orang peserta didik di kelas 6. Pendekatan yang dilakukan adalah dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif. Pelaksanaan penelitian menggunakan trianggulasi metode yaitu pengamatan proses penyelesaian masalah, wawancara, dan peninjauan dokumen (hasil kerja peserta didik). Wawancara pada penelitian ini dilakukan kepada beberapa peserta didik, yaitu 2 orang kemampuan tinggi, 2 orang berkemampuan rendah dan 2 orang kemampuan sedang. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan bahwa teknik Polya menunjukkan hasil yang berbeda terhadap hasil penyelesaian permasalahan masing-masing kategori peserta didik dalam menyelesaikan soal cerita tentang luas persegi dan persegi panjang. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut dapat diketahui pemahaman peserta didik mengenai materi geometri pada soal cerita
