This research aims to obtain a description of the relation between various ways of thinking and students’ abilities. The research was conducted in an Inclusive Junior High School in the West Java Province, Indonesia. This study is qualitative, with single-case (holistic) designs. The data were collected through student tests, observations, document analysis, and teacher interviews. The data analysis was conducted using grounded theory with constant comparison. The results showed that based on the number of ways of thinking, students can be divided into three groups; there are the low, middle, and high groups. The low group performed one way of thinking, the middle group performed two-three ways of thinking, and the high group performed four ways of thinking. Surprisingly, students who have various ways of thinking, they have more abilities.
