Please ask the library for assistance. Obvious efforts to enhance Mathematics education in the Philippines is seen through the development of curriculum guides by DepEd and SEI-DOST. But to this day many Filipino students still struggle on their Math subject. There are numerous possible elements that can contribute to Mathematics difficulty such as the teacher, methods of teaching, teaching materials, the students' own belief and attitudes towards mathematics and in their capabilities which affects them as math learners. From the data gathering conducted by the researcher on the current beliefs & attitudes and the performance of a group of grade 6 mathematics students from both star and non-star section, the students struggled with their Math subject because of their lack of fluency in arithmetics, specifically multiplication and division. As grade 6 students in their third quarter of the school year, the students should be well capable in multiplication and division at this point because concepts and problems gradually increase in complexity. Some students still do repeated addition for multiplication solutions. According to the teacher of both sections, the lack of fluency may be caused by the amount of suspensions in a year. She stated that the topics in the students' books are often not completed and/or taught briefly to account for these suspensions. This results to students advancing a grade level with insufficient fluency of previous concepts, thus struggling to solve for newer topics. It is recommended that DepEd look further into this issue. The student's lack of arithmetic fluency affects not only their solving capabilities but also their confidence as they get feelings of uncertainty and nervousness when they have to solve math problems, especially when performing multiplication and division. The students feel daunted seeing big numbers and long computations, but in reality solving for bigger values and doing long computations in multiplication and division is the same as solving for smaller values because usually the number is broken up to single digits.
