This study aimed to describe the improvement of students' critical thinking skills in Newton's Law subject after generative learning model was implemented. The type of this research was pre-experimental research with One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The population of this study was all eighth grade students of MTs Makarim Al-akhlak, Singkawang City. The sampling technique used was saturated sampling. The research instrument used was a description test. The data obtained was not normally distributed, so the data was analyzed using non-parametric statistical test namely Mc Nemar Test. From the calculation results, it was obtained the value of χ2obs. > χ2c.v. or 6.125 > 3.841, then H0 was rejected and Ha was accepted at the significance level α = 0.05. Therefore, it could be concluded that there was an improvement in students' critical thinking skills in Newton's law subject after generative learning model was implemeted.
