Abstract: This paper aims to produce an instrument of observation in the selection of meaningful approach to assess children’s science process skills. This instrument has four categories. First of all, the use of the type of approach encompasses the approaches of learning through play, thematic, integrated, mastery, contextual and project. Secondly, the suitability of the selection of approach encompasses relevance, parallelism, engaging. Thirdly, meaningful teaching encompassing the interaction or discussion, stimulation, involvement, curiosity and questioning and answering. Fourth, children’s science skills activities that cover problem solving, reasoning, looking into the process, analytical, inquiry and reflection. Every item in every category has four Likert scales. It is hoped that these items of observation develop can be used to assess the children science process skills.
