This research was conducted to examine the effect of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) integrated with Osing Traditional House Ethnomathematics on students' creative thinking level in Polyhedra. PjBL is a project-oriented learning model and can encourage students to collaborate in designing, implementing, and presenting products. Creative thinking is students’ ability to produce new ideas that are different from existing ones. The subjects of this study were students of SMPN 2 Banyuwangi. In the initial stage, a pre-test of creative thinking level was conducted. Next, PjBL integrated with the Osing Traditional House was implemented on Polyhedra. In the final stage, a post-test was conducted to determine students' creative thinking level after PjBL treatment. The hypothesis was proved by Wilcoxon Signed Rank test. Based on the research data, it is known that Sig. is 0.000 (ρ <0.05), so it is concluded that students' creative thinking level before and after participating in PjBL were significantly different. Before PjBL, it was known that students were at the levels of not creative, less creative, quite creative, creative, and very creative, respectively, as many as 12%, 35%, 23%, 18%, and 12%; while after learning as many as 0%, 9%, 12%, 38%, and 41%. This means that the PjBL integrated with the Osing Traditional House can increase students' creative thinking level.
