ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of discovery learning model assisted with individual manipulative terms of student responses and to determine the description of students’ mathematical communication skills class III based on student responses. The method used in this study is a mixed method. The data collected through test, questionnaire, interview, and documentation. The result showed that (1) Discovery learning model assisted with individual manipulative is effective on mathematical communication skills which can be seen from the results test mathematical communication skills of the experimental class is greater than the control class, (2) The pattern of mathematical communication skills in terms student responses variety. Of the 30 subjects there were students who entered the less positive, positive and very positive categories. Therefore, this research can be an alternative in learning mathematics especially use individual manipulative and mathematical communication skills can be applied in learning with assisted model individual manipulative.
Keywords: Mathematical Communication Skills, Discovery Learning, Student Responses, Individual Manipulative Teaching Aids.
