Abstract

The problem in the 5th grade of SDN Wonoasih 1 Probolinggo is the low of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) of students in science subject because the teacher has never implemented a learning model that can train students' HOTS. The students' HOTS during the pre-classical stage reached 43,64 with the number of students who reached the KKM score (≥70) was only 1.
