This study aims to identify effective strategies for determining integrated learning materials in the era of the Merdeka Curriculum. Using a qualitative descriptive method with a literature study approach, this study analyzes various strategies that can be applied by elementary school educators in developing integrated learning materials. The results of the study show that effective strategies include: (1) thematic mapping based on the developmental stages of students, (2) integration of local wisdom and contextual learning, (3) utilization of digital technology and multimedia learning resources, (4) collaborative planning involving cross-subject teams, and (5) continuous evaluation and reflection. These strategies enable educators to create learning experiences that are more meaningful, contextual, and student-centered. The application of these strategies can improve students' critical thinking, creativity, and ability to connect knowledge across subjects. This study contributes to the development of pedagogical practices in the era of the Merdeka Curriculum and provides practical guidance for educators in implementing integrated learning effectively.
