Abstract
This study aims to improve independent learning activities and improve students mathematical literacy through worksheets (LKS) based on the environment around the pandemic COVID-19. The environmental based mathematics worksheet is designed based on the Tessmer research and development model, which is a trial limited to one particular group. Based on the data obtained it can be concluded that the use of environmental based worksheets can encourage students to learn more actively. The use of neighborhood-based worksheets has put 78.12% in the "high" category when learning activities, 15% are in the “medium” category, and the rest are as many as 6.25% in the "low" category. This shows that the environment-based worksheets that are presented virtually using social media whatshapp have a positive effect on the learning activities of students. As for mathematics literacy, Table 1 above shows that the use of environmental based worksheets around students has a positive impact on students mathematical literacy abilities. Based on the results of the mathematical literacy test in the context of the environment-based worksheet used in learning mathematics virtually using the whatshapp application, there were 68.75% of students in the "high" category, 18.75% were in the "medium" category and the rest, namely 12.5% are in the "low" category. This shows that the use of environmental based worksheets can optimize the mathematical literacy ability of students.
