Abstract

The purpose of this research is to describe students' mathematical communication in solving number pattern problems. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. The research subjects were fifth grade students. Students were asked to solve number pattern problems. Student work results are classified into three categories which include good, medium, and low. In each category, 1 student was selected to be interviewed and analyzed in more depth regarding their mathematical communication. The results showed that (1) students in the good category were able to understand the context of the problem, express thoughts or solutions correctly and clearly, and use various ways to express thoughts or solutions; 2) students in the moderate category are able to understand the context of the problem, express thoughts or solutions that are not clear, and use various ways to express thoughts or solutions but are not precise; (3) students in the low category have not been able to understand the context of the problem, have not been able to express thoughts or solutions correctly and clearly, and have not been able to use various ways to express thoughts or solutions.
