Good programs in elementary school mathematics should include activities for building enthusiasm for mathematics as well as teaching basic concepts. Special projects offer teachers opportunities to motivate their students while children practice computational skills. When a mathematics act ivity involves children in ways in which each individual can be successful and feel that his or her contribution is as valuable as the next child's, then the students feel good about themselves and about mathematics. Teachers can capture the interest of children who are not self-motivated and build enthusiasm for mathematics in the classroom through projects.

A few years ago, the estimation exercise shown in figure I appeared in some text materials for the middle grades. The source went on to say that the Oxford Dictionary defines the word “ floccipaucinihilipilification” as “the action of estimating is worthless.” Although the majority of elementary school mathematics teachers would probably disagree with the implications of this word, many children leave the elementary school with little, if any, skill in estimation. A student teacher recently raised the inevitab le question when she said, “I can't find any source where it tells how to do it. What is it and what good is it?”

The application of character learning to elementary mathematics requires certain techniques. In the mathematics of elementary school teachers should use abstract media. Problems that arise in elementary school mathematics teacher in Kecamatan Negeri Katon is lack of knowledge in using props, in this case on FPB material and KPK. In addition, teachers are still confused in choosing the props that should be used on every learning material. To overcome this is used DAKOTA props that can facilitate students' understanding in learning FPB and KPK materials. The method used in this devotion is the making of DAKOTA props using rigid boards. From the results of this devotion activity obtained the spirit of mathematics teachers and the emergence of ideas to make props on other learning materials.
