This study aims (1) to describe the implementation of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model in the Indonesian Language subject for fourth-grade students at SD Negeri 5 Lappa, Sinjai Regency, (2) to describe students’ poetry writing creativity, and (3) to determine the effect of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model on students’ poetry writing creativity. This study used an experimental method with a quantitative approach. The research design was a Quasi-Experimental design with a nonequivalent control group design. The population consisted of all fourth-grade students of SD Negeri 5 Lappa, Sinjai Regency.
