The purpose of this study was to describe the self-regulated learning ability of elementary school students in learning mathematics. It was conducted on 284 fourth-grade elementary school students. Respondents were chosen based on the same characteristics, which are the same curriculum, grade and age range. Data were collected from students' responses using the questionnaires. This research was a quantitative descriptive with survey-design research type. The result showed that the ability of self-regulated learning students was various.
