Whereas the assessment of attitudes to pre-service elementary school teachers is also very important in determining the success of the learning process. This study aims to develop and find out the validity and practicality of attitude assessment instruments for elementary school teacher candidates based on scientific literacy. This type of research is research and development using the Rowntree model. The stages of this research include planning, developing, and evaluating. Based on the results of the study the validity of the attitude assessment instrument obtained an average value of 84% with a valid category. The average value was 83% for the practicality value in the practical category. From these data, it can be concluded that the instrument for evaluating the attitude of pre-service elementary school teachers is based on valid and practical science literacy.
