This research was motivated by the low mathematical problem solving abilities of fifth grade students at SD 3 Tenggeles. This can be seen from the results of students' daily test scores, of which 17 students only 8 students were able to reach the KKM. This research, which aims to analyze the mathematical problem solving abilities of class V students on Speed and Discharge material, is descriptive research with a narrative approach. The research subjects were 6 students selected using purposive techniques. Data collection techniques use documentation, observation, and interviews, while data analysis techniques used in this research include collecting data, reducing data, presenting data, and drawing conclusions. The results of this research are based on four indicators of problem solving ability according to the Polya stages, namely (1) Students in the high category are able to fulfill all indicators, (2) Students in the medium category are only able to fulfill two indicators, and (3) Students in the low category unable to meet all indicators.
