Based on an interview with a teacher in one of the primary schools in Pekanbaru, it was found that 40% students did not achieve the standard outcomes which was 73. The classroom observation then was conducted, and it was found that most of the time the students listened to the teacher’s explanation and answered the teacher’s reviewing questions. No teaching material used to help the students engage in the learning and understand the concept taught. The purpose of this research was to know whether the students’ understanding would increase by implementing the teaching materials developed with Montessori’s principals as well as to understand ways that the Montessori teaching materials could increase the students' understanding. Classroom action research was the research method implemented. The subject of the research was grade two students. Instruments used were: result of the students’ test, the teacher’s interview and the research’s journal reflection as well as documentation. The findings showed that the students' understanding increased by implementing the Montessori teaching materials. The data also showed that the researchers should modify her materials in ways that each student could touch as well as simplifying the worksheet used. It was also suggested that the researcher simplify her instruction and develop her classroom management.
