This research was conducted departing from the results of teacher observations and interviews in teaching and learning activities, many teachers have yet to use teaching materials in the form of Student Worksheets (LKPD). This study aims to develop teaching materials for thematic Student Worksheets (LKPD) using the Multiple Intelligences-based Problem Based Learning (PBL) model for grade V Elementary Schools, to improve the creative thinking skills of elementary school students. The research method used is the research and development (R&D) method with the 4D development model (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate). This research was carried out by testing small-scale tests in class VI SDN Sadar Karya with a total of 15 students and large-scale tests in class V SDN Sadar Karya, Musi Rawas Regency, with a total of 30 students. Data and collection techniques in this study include questionnaires and test questions that have been tested for validity, reliability, level of difficulty, and discriminatory power. Based on the study's results, it was shown that students' average creative thinking ability had increased. The results of the analysis of the test questions for each aspect stated that the average thinking ability of students in the fluency aspect obtained a score of 90.00% in the high category. The aspect of flexibility has an average value of 89.58% in the high category. The authenticity aspect gets an average value of 89.17% in the high category. The aspect of detail obtains an average value of 86.67%, belonging to the medium category. The results showed that the thematic Problem Based Learning (PBL) based on Multiple Intelligences-based Student Worksheets (LKPD) was effective in increasing students' creative thinking abilities in class V SD with an N-gain of 0.73 (high category).
