The sample consisted of 30 students in the first semester of the academic year 2022 at Nong Sang Wittayayon School, Chaiyaphum Province by cluster random sampling. The research instruments were 1) lesson plans 2) the science achievement tests had difficulty values between 0.37-0.77 discrimination values between 0.20-0.80 and reliability value was 0.75 3) the satisfaction questionnaire. The statistics for data analysis comprised; mean, standard deviation, percentage, and t-test for dependent samples and one sample t-test. The results of this research found that the science achievement of grade 6 students to wards on STAD after learning was significantly higher than before at the .05 levels. The science achievement of grade 6 students to wards on STAD after learning was significantly higher than 70% at the .05 levels. The satisfaction of grade 6 students towards on STAD cooperative learning technique at the highest level.
