Abstract
This study aims to analyze teachers^ perceptions of elementary school students^ honesty during Market Day activities. This study used a descriptive quantitative approach, with data collection techniques in the form of questionnaires distributed to 57 elementary school teachers. The analysis results indicate that teachers^ perceptions of students^ honesty during Market Day activities are in the good category, with a percentage of 79.17%. The majority of respondents gave positive ratings for all indicators, including transaction transparency, honesty in pricing, financial reporting integrity, compliance with regulations, and role responsibility. Among these aspects, compliance with regulations and agreements was considered the most prominent achievement in reflecting students^ honesty. The conclusion of this study indicates that Market Day activities are effective as a real-life simulation tool in building a foundation of honesty in students through practical experience, so that these integrity values develop optimally.
