Generally mathematic teachers difficult to serve the differences mathematic ability of the student. For the smarts student, teacher ever pursue their activity and waiting the student who didn’t too smart. For them the teacher try to motivated them, so they can catch the material such as the smart one although it’s a difficult. A high NEM target and finish the syllabi is two main factor that why teacher sound like not other choice except using the expository method in their lesson. That method emphasized on give a task in classical teaching. Because of that, the student was not like mathematics subject.

According this situate, teacher need to reform their method into the innovative one. And in order to make the student interesting with mathematic subject Ebbut, S and Straker, A (1995), give an advice how to teach mathematic by planning, learning and evaluation. In planning level, teacher should prepare the plan of learning environment and the mathematics activity.

In order to planning the environment of mathematics learning, teacher needs to choose the reference that needs, planning the flexible activity, planning the physic environment of learning, invite the student to create the learning environment, develop the social environment of student, planning the activity to work together, push the student to respected each other, search the student feel about mathematic and develop the mathematics model.

The to plan the mathematics activity teacher should planning the balance mathematics activity in them material, time, difficulty, activity, etc, planning the open ended activity, planning the activity according to the student ability, develop the topic, built the mathematics mental, use various reference.

And then when the teachers start to teach, they should pay attention to develop their role and manage time to the student. To develop the teacher role, teacher should push and develop the student understanding, give opportunity to all student to show their ability to do the mathematics activity, it’s doesn’t matter if the student make a mistake, push the student to responsible with their study.

Then to manage the time, teacher should develop the student experience, allocated time, arrange the interaction, see the student activity. The last is evaluation. Here teacher should research the student activity, evaluate them self and asses the understanding, process, ability, fact and result, teacher also need to asses the result and monitored the student improvement.
