Abstract:
The present research aims to identify the correlation between numerical sense and the academic achievement of mathematics among first grade students. In order to achieve this goal, the researcher adopted a measure (Hasan, 2013) to measure the numerical sense. The researcher also constructed an achievement test for mathematics. After identifying the research community represented by the first grade students in the six districts in Baghdad governorate, (200) students, and applied research tools. After the application of the tools and data collection, the data were analyzed by statistical package for social sciences (SPSS). The results were as follows: 1 1. There is a low level of numerical sense among students in the first grade average 2. There is a low level of academic achievement in mathematics among students in the first grade average 3. There is a relationship of statistical significance between the numerical sense and the academic achievement of students in the first grade average The research concluded with a set of conclusions, recommendations and proposals.
