This study was based on the limited accessibility and connectivity of student learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study was to determine effectiveness of Blended Learning in improving students’ critical thinking skills and science learning outcomes. This study used a quasi-experimental design in the form of Nonequivalent control group design. Meanwhile, data collection used questionnaires and performance tests in SD Dabin II, Tlogowungu District. The data analysis in this study used the prerequisite test including the normality test and the homogeneity test, while the research hypothesis was tested using the T test and statistic descriptive test. The results in this study indicate that the Blended Learning model is effective in significantly improving students’ critical thinking skills and science learning outcomes. This research is expected to become a foothold in further research as a further development on the use of blended learning.
