Having mathematical literacy skills have become a necessity for the 21st century. This ability is important to support the increasingly complex ability to solve everyday mathematical problems. Mathematics teachers must be able to choose the right learning approach to improve students’ mathematical literacy skills. The approach currently recommended is Scientific. However, not every child is intelligent in logical-mathematics. Therefore, the scientific approach needs to be implemented in the mathematics class based on the theory of multiple intelligences. This article discusses how mathematics learning based on multiple intelligence theories with a scientific approach can improve students’ mathematical literacy skills. Through a study of several theories and supported by relevant research results it can be concluded that the combination of learning based on multiple intelligence theories and scientific approaches has the potential to improve students’ mathematical literacy skills.
