The hearing impairment can result in students having difficulty accepting learning. Obstacles Students in special schools when observing the understanding the numeracy skills. Students have problems sorting numbers and adding numbers from 1 to 10. Numeracy skills are an introductory lesson in learning mathematics. Several studies have shown that the media positively influences and can help teachers learn. In this study, the media selected were media that students generally liked and were very easy to obtain, namely ice cream sticks media. Based on this description, this study aims to see the improvement in students' numeracy skills by using ice cream sticks as the media. The research method to see an increase in numeracy skills is the experimental method. This study uses a single subject research (SSR) method with an A-B-A design. One deaf student in grade IV in special school who had difficulty in numeracy at the initial observation was selected as the research subject. The measurement instrument used a pre-test and post-test. The results showed that there was a change in the ability of deaf students before and after being given to learn using ice cream stick media. Numeracy skills of deaf students before intervention 60%-40% (pre-test). Meanwhile, the numeracy ability of deaf students after the intervention was 80%-93% (post-test). These results indicate that the students' numeracy skills in the post-test were higher than in the pre-test.
