Research methods use the quasi-experiment, with one group pre-test and post- test design with a class VII sample on the subject matter of climate change. Through the gain-score test, the results of the 4A learning model that has the syntax of phenomenon analysis, information analysis, data analysis, and analysis of findings were able to improve the analytical thinking skills moderate level average of secondary school students in natural science subjects. Keywords- 4A learning models, analytical thinking skills, secondary school, natural science subject I. INTRODUCTION The analysis is used to identify intense and actual relationships as long as the statements, questions, concepts, descriptions or forms of representation are expressed to express a belief, justification, experience, reaction, information, and opinion [1]. Analysis and evaluation are recognized skills required by each student in various fields of science, such as analyzing computer programs, laboratory test results, infographics, and so on [2]. Natural Sciences is one of the disciplines that study the symptoms of nature and its interactions. The essence of natural science consists of scientific attitudes, scientific processes, and scientific products. This scientific process is known as the scientific method. According to [3], a simple experimental method consists of three (3) operations, i.e., observing, explaining, and testing from the described event based on Lampiran Permendikbud No. 68 Tahun 2013 [4]. The objectives of science learning revitalize the natural science process skills for students, teachers, and prospective teachers as the main mission of learning science teaching in school to develop observation skills, plan investigations, interpret (interpretation) data and information (narrative, drawings, charts, tables) and conclude. To be able to conclude then needed analysis thinking skills. Amer et al. [5] expressed thought analysis is a powerful thinking tool to understand the parts of the situation, defined as 1) the ability to examine and parse the facts and thoughts into strengths and weaknesses and 2) Develop the capacity to think wisely, intelligently, resolve problems, analyze data, remember and use information. Students' analytical thinking skills are still low. It is based on The Global index of cognitive skills and educational achievement of The Learning Curve Pearson of The Year 2014 [6], Indonesia is ranked at 40 from 40 countries, where students are still at a low level of thought, namely knowledge and Understanding. This also emphasized with preliminary studies conducted by researchers at Secondary school in Sidoarjo that the skills of
