Abstract
This study aims to figure out the students mathematical communication skills on the subject of the volumes of cubes and cuboids for the students taught with REACT strategy were better than those who taught with conventional learning. The research method used was a quasi-experimental design of The Nonequivalent Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design conducted on students in one of the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI). Based on the results of the study it was concluded that the students mathematical communication skills who acquired learning with the REACT strategy were better than those who applied conventional learning.
