The purpose of this study is to analysis the percentage and profile for each indicator of students' science process skills through contextual approach with model of learning cycle 5E in Classification of Matter as the subject. Research method used in this study is mixed methods, which is a method that uses two methods of quantitative and qualitative data using students’ observation sheet, questionnaire and interview. Result from observation sheet as quantitative data proved that science process skills achievement results of students in the classical 24 found that 21 students with a percentage of 87.50% have good science process skills while the percentage of 3 students with 12.50% had moderate science process skills. Science process skills of students has good categories with percentage 85.49%, except for the aspect ask questions with the percentage 75.00% has moderate category. Science process skills of students in chemistry science learning through contextual approach with model of learning cycle 5E gained an average of good category. Indicators of science process skills with highest percentage is observation aspect, while the lowest percentage is ask questions aspect with moderate category.
