The analytical method used is the validity test, reliability test, normality test, data homogeneity test and hypothesis testing. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the control class using the conventional learning model and the experimental class using the snowball throwing learning model. This shows that the snowball throwing learning model has a significant effect on student learning outcomes in grade IV elementary school civics subjects.
