Comparing Contextual and Scientific approaches in mathematics learning in terms of student literacy skills is essential for mathematics teachers. It is with this purpose that this research. We chose Solid Geometry for junior high school students for this research material. We randomly took two classes of the nine classes, grade 8 in.MTsN 1 Boyolali, Central Java, Indonesia, to become the research sample. The instrument for measuring students' mathematical literacy skills is in the form of essay questions. The instrument is valid and reliable. The comparison of the two learning approaches uses an average score of mathematical literacy. The study results using a significance level of α = 5% concluded that the mean scores of mathematical literacy skills between the two classes were not significantly different. © 2022 Author(s).
