As the main purpose of science education, scientific literacy in everyday society be a description the success of science education undertaken by each country. However, this capability has not been trained optimally through the learning process of science in Indonesia. Researcher conducted a construction matter that can be used to measure the literacy skills of students in the scientific domain competence on the topic of straight motion. This research use descriptive research type of survey with amount question 18 items. The population in this research is a class VIII student in one of the Junior High School in West Bandung regency with a total sample of 140 eighth grade students using random sampling. The result showed reliability coefficient (rhh) by 0.73 (high category) with the validity of the item, level of difficulty, and distinguishing each item on diverse. The results earned will be used as a reference for analyzing the difficulties of scientific literacy class VIII junior high school students on the topic of straight motion and reconstruct the science lesson plan which trains scientific literacy.
