Strategies and applications is a task that need a deep and comprehensive to fill the expediency condition. The dinamic of theDeveloping our country, Indonesia, prosecute that the curriculum development must pay attention : current issues in education, issues that arise in the field, variations in school, educational personnel, interests and abilities of students, as well as the demands of social development, science and technology. 
Competency-based mathematics education is a suppression of ability to be possessed by graduates, so the curriculum was developed based on the elaboration of standards of competence. Standard of competence is an ability that can be performed or displayed in learning mathematics, while the basic skills are minimal ability in mathematics courses that must be possessed by students. Basic skills can be affective abilities, cognitive and psychomotor. This is a material formulation that be appropriate with the basic ability and standard competence :
Basic ability
Learning material
Learning axperience
Solve the problem addition and multiplication in matrix
·  Matrix concept
·  Matrix symbol
·  Algorithm of addition and multiplication of matrix
· Solve the real problem in a mathematic symbol, that can be shown the matrix symbol
· Solve the real problem with use matrix

From the elegy, I can make a summary about EXIST. There are two kind of exist, the first if it is on mind and out mind. In mind, so the problem is how to explain your exist to the people. Out mind, so the problem is how to understand exist. 
Something exist of it is real, and it called real if the old fellow with the white hair can show your total, few or many of equal. Exist is if the old fellow with the white hair can show your member, your element, your content, your benefit, your song, your rule, your dream, your achievement, etc. The old fellow with the white hair have many way to know about your exist. Moreover, something is called not exist if the old fellow with the white hair cannot tell that you are exist or not. But if the old fellow with the white hair can tell that you are on mind, so you are exist.

The using calculator in mathematics learning is an ordinary thing in this era for everyone in elementary school until university. So, many research shown and explain about the calculator. There are two types of calculator by its utility, common calculator and scientific calculator. The common calculator usualy used in daily life.
The research was held in SMK Muhammadiyah IV Yogyakarta on February 2003 to get the describtion about the using calculator in mathematics teaching learning process. The reseacher gave the introduction about using calculator before the research was held. The graphics calculator is used to solve the linear equations and non-equations.
There are four steps to using graphics calculator in mathematics teaching learning activity. First step is to understand the importance of graphics calculator. Second step is to understand the theory and how to use the calculator to solve the the questions about linear equations and non-equations. Next step is to input data of the question in to the calculator. It will be prosessed to change the mathematics language to become the language of calculator. The last step is to construe the output that appeared in the monitor and get the conclusion.
The obstacle of using grapics calculator is the students be in trouble to translate the mathematical sentences in to the language of calculator. Also on other way, the students hard to explain the output of calculator in to the mathematical sentences.
By using the graphics calculator, mathematics teaching learning process in linear equations and non-equations topic will be more easier and fun than before. If the using of calculator is not balanced by conseption the procedure of operation and mathematical thinking, so it will be caused the dependence, lost of student’s confident and indolent to think

Teaching mathematics is not easy because sometime we meet that a student also difficult to study mathematics. Jarswoski said that “There is no the best way to teach mathematics”. ‘No best way’ doesn’t mean teaching mathematics is impossible. We just need to change our point of view in teaching mathematics as we know these days.
There are many things that become a problem for teacher : the teacher is so hard to handle the different mathematics ability student, to support their student to study actively, to develop the mathematics learning technology, targets in final exam (UAN), and all of those problems and difficulties lead to a decision that most of the teachers made. And that’s definitely makes most of the student getting bored and not really math subject in their class. So what do we do as a mathematics teacher?
If we know about the nature of mathematics and the nature of the student learn mathematics so we can get an evaluation like this : a definition (I want to know what the students know?), process (I want to know what method that they use?) , skill (I want to know what skill that they have?), and fact ( I want to know what they remember?)
And the important thing that we get frm this paper is hijrah, move, cahnge, innovation, reformation, contemplate, and reflection.

Makalah ini berisi tentang gambaran cara berpikir siswakelas 4 SD di Indonesia tentang pembelajaran KPK.Matematika di sekolah dasar memiliki fungsi untuk mendorong siswa untuk berpikir logis, analitis, sistematis, kritis, kreatif dan mampu berkolaborasi dengan orang lain. Berpikir matematika didefinisikan sebagai kegiatan siswa untuk mengkomunikasikan ide-ide matematika dengan menggunakan simbol, tabel, diagram dan sumber-sumber lain dengan tujuan siswa dapat memecahkan masalah mereka. 

Implementasi kurikulum matematika sekolah dasar di ruang kelas adalah untuk mengembangkan ketrampilan memecahkan masalah. Dalam memecahkan maslah siswa perlu berpikir kreatif untuk mengembangkan cara dan alternatif pemecahan masalah. Guru disarankan untuk mengembangkan pendekatan kontekstual dan realistis untuk mendorong mathematical thinking di sekolah dasar. Dengan pendekatan ini, diharapankan siswa secara bertahap belajar dan menguasai matematika dengan antusias. 
Ketika kita fokus pada pelajaran matematika, kita hanya terfokus pada pengetahuannya dan lupa untuk mengembangkan Sikap, Mathematical Thinking, dan Representasi.
