This study aims for students to be more active, creative, critical and have literacy skills. Most of students still interpret literacy as a form of reading activities and teachers must adjust the material literacy to be effective.

This study used qualitative method to solve the research problems, to guide researchers to explore and to take pictures widely which would be investigated more deeply related to activities or the implementation of literacy in learning activities in order to improve students’ social skills. Data collection techniques were observation, interviews, literature study and documentation. This study proved that literacy-based social science learning was very influential on improving students’ social skills. It was proven by the seriousness in learning when the students discussed and interacted well in conveying the results of the discussion of learning materials. Outside of learning, most students were polite and friendly both between friends and with other teachers. In this social science learning activity, the literacy implementation needs to be applied in the classroom before starting learning activities, so that students are accustomed to seeking knowledge on their own through reading and it will affect their social skills.
