Pandemi covid-19 mengharuskan adanya social distancing dan pembatasan pembelajaran secara luring sehingga berpotensi mempengaruhi aktivitas fisik anak usia sekolah. penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui korelasi aktivitas fisik terhadap berat badan anak sekolah dasar pada masa pandemi covid-19 di banda aceh. jenis penelitian ini adalah dengan kuantitatif non-experimental menggunakan desain korelasional dengan pendekatan cross sectional. populasi pada penelitian ini adalah 495 siswa usia 9-12 tahun di sd negeri 63 dan sdit nurul ishlah banda aceh. pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan teknik probability sampling menggunakan metode proportionate stratified random sampling dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 91 responden. pengumpulan data menggunakan kuesioner paq-c dan dianalisis menggunakan pearson product moment. hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat korelasi aktivitas fisik terhadap berat badan anak sekolah dasar (p-value = 0,004) dengan koefisien korelasi -0,301. semakin tinggi aktivitas fisik maka semakin berkurang berat badan, begitupun sebaliknya. disarankan bagi guru disekolah untuk dapat memodifikasi jenis olahraga yang dapat dilakukan anak usia sekolah secara individu pada masa pandemi covid-19. bagi orangtua diharapkan dapat merencanakan aktivitas fisik anak selama dirumah.

COVID-19 pandemic requires social distancing and restrictions on offline learning so that it has the potential to affect the physical activity of schoolchildren. This research aimed to find out the physical activity correlation between the elementary school children during the COVID-19 pandemic in Banda Aceh. This research is non-experimental quantitative research using a correlational design with the cross-sectional approach. The population of this research was 495 students from 9 to 12 years old in State Elementary School 63 of Banda Aceh and Nurul Ishlah Integrated Islamic Elementary School of Banda Aceh. The sample was chosen by using the probability sampling technique using proportionate stratified random sampling method, and the total sample was 91 respondents. The data was collected using the PAQ-C and analyzed using the Pearson Product Moment. The results of the research showed that there was a correlation between physical activity and the elementary school children’s weight (p-value = 0.004, with a correlation coefficient = -0,301. The more physical activity did, the more weight lost, and vice versa. It is suggested to the teachers at school to modify the exercise type which may do by schoolchildren individually during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is also expected of the parents to plan the children's physical activity at home.
