EFFECTIVENESS OF REMEDIAL INTERVENTION ON STUDENTS' PERFORMANCE IN RAPID MATHEMATICS ASSESSMENT

This study aimed to find out if Rapid Mathematics Assessment (RMA) results can help in generating math activities for Grade 5 pupils. It tried to find math problems see how to make activities based on RMA results and check if these activities help learners learn better and feel more engaged.

The study used research plan and involved grade 5 pupils who took the RMA and then got extra help based on what they needed. The researcher collected data through test. The results showed that RMA helped find math areas where pupils struggled like adding and subtracting numbers working with fractions and problem solving.

The activities made for pupils were fun and really helped them to do better in math as shown by their post-test scores. Pupils also became motivated to participate in class after doing these activities. The RMA tool helped teachers a lot in determining pupils’ strength and weaknesses.

The study concludes that interventions in the Rapid Mathematics Assessment results particularly on modules on fractions, decimals, geometry and data interpretation are affective interventions to improve learning.
