The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of Experiential learning using the laboratory method (ELLM) for 4th grade elementary school students. The intervention group consisted of two classes that performed ELLM and the control group had one class that did not perform ELLM. Before and after the intervention, questionnaire surveys were conducted on class, interpersonal and self. We analyzed questionnaires and worksheets at the time of ELLM intervention. As a result, there was an improvement in class and interpersonal relationship scores. These findings discussed the effects of ELLM on class groups.
