above the minimum criteria, 2) lack of students' curiosity of the lessons conveyed by teachers in the classroom,
this is known from at least students who want to ask or propose his opinion. This classroom action research was
conducted in third class at SD Negeri 157 Pekanbaru. The time of this study is planned for 1 month ie in
February 2016. The form of this research is collaborative class action research. Collaborative research in this
research involves one person as an observer. In this research observer is a teacher of class III SD Negeri 157
Pekanbaru. Based on the results of analysis and discussion as presented in chapter IV can be concluded that
with the use of demonstration methods can improve learning outcomes on subjects of Civics in students of class
III SD Negeri 157 Pekanbaru. This success is due to during the demonstration the teacher should give the
students a chance to observe well and ask about the difficulties faced by the students. In the end the student seeks
a movement or perhaps an answer with his own effort based on the correct facts, as well as lessen errors when
compared with just reading or explaining, because students get a clear picture of the results of his observations.
