The researcher used a checklist style research questionnaire, and this was conducted and administered for the Grade II pupils.

RESULTS

Based on the data gathered, it was proven that positive attitude toward Mathematics (Memorization of Multiplication Table) was very important to have a good academic grade. It was also conducted that good study habits contributed to a successful academic future of the pupils. Through the test significance, the researcher came up with the conclusion that there is a significant relationship between the pupils' interest and study habits in Mathematics and their academic grade in Mathematics.

DISCUSSIONS

The focus of the research is for the Grade II pupils to learn about multiplication table. It can be summarized that at the time of study, learners learned multiplication very well through proper application or through the different methods used.
