However, some autistic students have difficulty in recognizing money so they need learning methods that suit the needs and abilities of students. This research uses role playing methods in mathematics learning in the form of buying and selling role-playing activities that can encourage students to learn to know money through direct experience. So this study aims to prove the influence of role playing methods in mathematics learning on the ability to recognize money for autistic students. The subjects in this study amounted to 7 autistic students at SLB Harmoni Sidoarjo. This study used a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design type of one group pre-test post-test design. The data analysis technique used is Wilcoxon Match Pairs Test with Wilcoxon formula test and Wilcoxon SPSS V.26.0 test. The results showed that the average value before applying the role playing method was 40.32 and after applying the role playing method increased to 78.16. Based on the results of statistical testing using the Wilcoxon formula, Ztabel 1.96 < Zcalculate 2.36 and the results using SPSS obtained by Asymp. (2-tailed) 0.017 < 0.05. So it shows the same result that H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. That is, the application of role playing methods in mathematics learning affects the ability to recognize the money of autistic students at SLB Harmoni Sidoarjo.
