This research aimed to develop a science teaching module based on ethnoscience by integrating the local tradition of Tedhak Siten as an innovative approach to learning. It seeks to improve the understanding of scientific concepts through a contextual approach that is relevant to the local culture, to spark students' interest in science, and to strengthen the local cultural identity within the educational process. This study used the Research and Development (R&D) method with the ADDIE model approach (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The research stage in this study only reached the Development stage. This module was designed to integrate concepts of growth and development in science with the cultural values of the Tedhak Siten tradition, making learning more contextual and relevant to students' lives. Based on data analysis, the validation results showed that the module received an average score of 94% from content experts and 96.4% from media experts, categorized as “highly valid” and not requiring revision. Therefore, this teaching module is declared fit for use in teaching science to grade IX students in SMP/MTs.
