Mathematical creative thinking ability is an important component that must be possessed by students because the problems in modern times are very difficult and require a high level of problem solving. The aims of this research is to illustrate and analyze the mathematical creative thinking ability of junior high school students in polyhedron topic. This research used a qualitative descriptive research approach and case study reseach design. Data collection techniques used in the form of written tests and interviews. The subjects was chosen from 35 students' of class VIII in MTsN 1 Kota Serang in the academic year 2019/2020. This research used inductive data analysis techniques, the steps in analyzing data include: data reduction, data display, conclusions drawing and verification. The results showed the students' mathematical creative thinking ability on polyhedron was in the medium category with a percentage in the high category 14%, medium category 69%, and low category 17%. The percentage of mathematical creative thinking ability based on aspects shows the aspect of originality 59%, fluency 61%, flexibility 62%, and elaboration 75%. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
