Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact that journaling would have on students’ academic performance in mathematics. Alongside this, student perceptions on writing in the mathematics classroom were also observed through surveys. Journaling was chosen as the instrument to be given to the experimental groups. The study applied an explanatory mixed-methods research design which consisted of a pre-test and survey and post-test and survey to see what changes occurred between the two groups of students that consisted of a mixture of sixty ninth and tenth graders.
