The solution to overcome this problem was to develop new literacy science integrated learning material. This study aims to determine the validity and practicality of using new integrated literacy science learning material. This type of research was Research and Development. The object of research was integrated science learning material for new literacy themes of motion in life. The data source were the result of the validity and practicality test. The instruments used were validation questionnaire sheets and practicality questionnaire sheets.
