Scientific literacy is important in relation to daily life because by having scientific literacy, someone can consider all its decisions based on the understanding of science that he has. Scientific literacy in Indonesia is still very low. But scientific literacy can be enhanced, one of which is through contextual teaching and learning activities conducted in elementary schools. This is evidenced by the results of research with pre-experimental method with one group pretest-posttest design which shows that contextual learning can increase scienctific literacy in all groups of students whether students in the category high, medium, and low when done properly.
