Abstract
This classroom action research aims to find out whether STEAM-based Project Based Learning (PjBL) can improve students' numeracy skills in nonmathematics subject, such as English. This study was conducted in Procedure Text instruction. Two sustainable lifestyle issues, namely Ugly Food and PET Bottleswere used as project themes. Differentiated learning strategy was implemented in Cycle II. The analysis of the non-cognitive assessment showed that STEAM-based PjBL was proven to enhance students' numeracy skills in mathematical reasoning, the use of mathematical tools, and disposition or attitude. The result of this study highlights the possibility of integrating sustainability elements in language education to enhance students’ numeracy skills.
