The phenomenon was assumed due to the techer-centered situation during the teaching and learning process in he classroom. Basides, the teachers were assumed lacking in considering students’already existing background knowledge, and the students’ mathematic concept using Fire-up strategy was higher than students’ mathematic concept using conventional model at grade VIII of MTsN Gurun Panjang.The design of the research was experiment. The population was students of grade VIII. The sample was taken randomly. The experiment group was VIII.1 and the control group was VIII.3. The instrument use in the researchwas essay post-test.
