About this resource

Discover Your Students' Attitudes Toward Math with this Free Survey for Grades 2-5

This free Math Attitude and Interest Survey allows elementary school teachers to quickly evaluate their students' perspectives on math at the beginning and end of the school year. The survey contains over a dozen agree/disagree statements written at an early to late elementary reading level. Students simply reflect on their feelings about math by responding to each prompt. Teachers can use the results to understand potential negative outlooks and discuss changes over the course of the year. Compare responses without assuming that attitudes will improve. This one-page resource provides an efficient snapshot of class trends that guides instructional approaches. It's an easy tool to implement individually, in small groups, or with the whole class.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Teaching tips

Administer this survey at the start of a unit or school year, then again later, to track shifts in student attitude over time.
Because the 16 statements probe different angles (confidence, enjoyment, anxiety, everyday use), look for patterns across a student's answers rather than reading any single statement alone.
Use the quick 'I love math!' vs. 'Yeah, not so much' choice on the cover as a fast whole-class temperature check before assigning the full 16-statement survey.

Skills covered

Formative attitude assessment — teachers use the 16 agree/disagree statements to identify math anxiety, disengagement, or overconfidence early, before planning instruction.
Student self-reflection — students consider and mark their own honest reaction to statements spanning confidence, enjoyment, and everyday math use.
