Abstract


This research aim to completely describe Math communication capability of Students in VIII grade, in solving Math’s problem based on their Math abilities difference. The discussion can be concluded as follow; students with high and intermediate Math skill understand the problem by identifying the symbols or term found in the problems.  They also identified the symbols and terms were being questioned in the problem they face by using their best understanding. In problem solving planning, subject which in this case is students, made a design of problem solving model or strategy used in it. Students did not use any other strategy since they believed that the strategy they used is good enough in solving the Math problem correctly. They showed that strategy is the best in solving the problem correctly. In doing problem solving planning, students applied the problem solving strategy based on their planning.  Students decided the right early decision from what they have performed. Critical result was done in rechecking. Subject also rechecking the steps in problem solving by re-reading the answer of the question. The subject took the final decision of rechecking problem solving and the correct result.
