Abstract

In the current millennial era 4.0, ability to predict events will happen was very important for humans. Activity in predicting what will happen was called probabilistic thinking. Because of  probabilistic thinking was importance for humans, it was necessary to develop students’ probabilistic thinking from an early age. One of them was through learning mathematics at elementary school level. Teachers, as the spearhead of students’ successful in the classroom, played an important role in developing students' probabilistic thinking. Teachers must be able to observe and understand aspects of probabilistic thinking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine aspects of probabilistic thinking of elementary school students. The results of this study would be useful for teachers in observing and developing students' probabilistic thinking. This research type was literature study. Data collection was done by understanding data from textbooks, journals, scientific articles, literature reviews. Data analysis was done to obtain an overview of aspects of probabilistic thinking. The results of this study indicated that there are 3 aspects of probabilistic thinking in solving probability task, namely strategy, response and representation. The results of this study explained in detail the types and descriptions of the three aspects of probabilistic thinking.
