Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui respon siswa terhadap Lembar Kerja Siswa berbasis Problem Based Learning yang dikembangkan. Pengembangan menggunakan model 4-D yang terdiri dari 4 tahap yaitu Definition, Design, Development, dan Disseminate. Pengumpulan data menggunakan lembar validasi dan angket respon siswa. Angket respon siswa menggunakan skala Guttman yang terdiri atas 20 item berisi pernyataan positif dan negative. Item pernyataan didasarkan pada aspek akurasi, kesesuaian dengan model pembelajaran, serta pemenuhan syarat didaktik, konstruksi, dan teknis. Sebelum diuji kepada siswa, lembar kerja siswa divalidasi oleh tiga ahli pendidikan matematika dengan hasil yang sangat valid (3,73). Uji coba lembar kerja siswa dilakukan kepada 32 siswa kelas VII-1 SMPN 1 Kuantan Mudik, Kuantan Singingi, Provinsi Riau pada semester II tahun akademik 2016/2017. Setelah melakukan pembelajaran dengan menggunakan lembar kerja, siswa diberi angket respon. Secara keseluruhan, siswa memberikan respon positif terhadap lembar kerja siswa yang berjumlah 94,37% tergolong sangat praktis. Meskipun lembar kerja siswa sudah menggunakan bahasa Indonesia yang mengacu pada Ejaan yang Disempurnakan, ada beberapa siswa yang menemukan kata atau istilah yang tidak diketahui pada lembar kerja siswa. Namun, ini bukan masalah karena lembar kerja siswa dikembangkan untuk pembelajaran kelompok sehingga siswa dapat mendiskusikan hal-hal yang tidak mereka mengerti dengan anggota kelompok mereka.
