Good Arabic learning cannot be separated from the method applied. The curriculum used at MAUDU has already applied K-13, but in fact many some teachers use the classical model. Therefore, a teaching model is necessary that can bring students not only able to answer questions, but also can understand the lessons much better. They can apply the material in their daily lives, analyze and evaluate what has/have been done. This model is known as HOTS (High Order Thinking Skills). This study tries to explain the HOTS system and its relation to Arabic literacy and to innovate the development of HOTS-based materials towards innovative learning. In this study, a descriptive approach, an analytical approach, and a critical approach were used.
