This research is motivated by the low mathematical communication skills of students and the implementation of Think-Pair-Share models in schools. This study aims to investigate whether there is a difference in mathematical communication skills between students who take Think-Pair-Share learning and students who take conventional learning. This research is a quasi-experimental study. Data analysis techniques used by researchers were descriptive statistics and the Mann Whitney U test. The instrument used was a descriptive test to measure students mathematical communication skills. Based on the results of the study concluded that (1) there are differences in mathematical communication skills between students using the Think-Pair-Share cooperative learning model with students using conventional learning models, (2) the communication skills of the experimental class students are better than the control class. Thus in general Think-Pair-Share learning model influences students mathematical communication skills.
