- Abstract
This research aims to analyze science process skills (SPS) and higher order thinking skills (HOTS) questions in Natural Science textbooks for elementary school students in Indonesia. Using a qualitative approach, data was collected from independent curriculum student and teacher handbooks for grade IV science subjects. Analysis of question items was carried out through the stages of unitizing, sampling, recording/coding, reducing, inferring, and narrating. The results of the analysis show that the values of science process skills and HOTS are distributed in each learning activity, although the distribution is not evenly distributed. Observational indicators are the ones that appear most frequently, followed by interpretation, classification, and prediction. There is no significant contribution from communication and hypothesis. The analysis also revealed that learning activities present various activities, such as essential questions, do it together, and let's reflect, which support the development of students’ critical and creative thinking skills. The results of this research can provide valuable input for developing a curriculum that is more effective and relevant to the demands of the times.
