Description:
Our study examines third-grade students’ attitudes toward and beliefs about mathematics. We discuss findings regarding their attitudes and beliefs in general, in comparison to Schoenfeld’s (1989) high school students, as well as how these attitudes and beliefs differ between Everyday Mathematics and Singapore Mathematics students.
