This research aims to describe the strategies for developing social knowledge and social skills in social studies learning at SMPN 1 Monta. The research method used is qualitative descriptive. Data were obtained from interviews and observations at SMPN 1 Monta with both teachers and students. The data analysis involved a stepwise data verification process and used three approaches to qualitative data analysis: Data Display, Data Interpretation, and Drawing Conclusions. The results of this research show that teachers use strategies to transform social knowledge correlated with daily life content in the surrounding environment, making the material understanding directly meaningful to students.
