Abstract

This research has a purpose to see the ability of mathematics literacy of elementary school students. The purpose of mathematics subjects mentioned is that learners have the ability to understand, use reasoning, solve problems, communicate and have a respect for mathematics, along with the applicable curriculum emphasizes mathematical literacy. Mathematical literacy is defined as the ability of an individual to formulate, use, and interpret mathematics in various contexts. It includes mathematical reasoning and uses concepts, procedures, facts, and mathematical tools in explaining and predicting phenomena. The mathematics literacy of 5 graders was measured using test questions and the results were analysed. The result is that 5 graders’ ability of mathematics literacy is not yet entrenched and the level of student’s mathematics ability level is at level 1. It can be seen from the answers given by the 5th graders, there is only one model of completion and problem solving is done almost the same. Problem solving done by the 5 graders has not varied.
