Abstract :

This paper reports the use of a systematic review to explore the impact of gender in children’s achievement and their skills in mathematics. The review process identified 6 key papers within the lastest five years (2010-2015). An in-depth analysis of these indicated that there was some evidence that there is a significant difference in children's mathematical achievements due to gender. The analysis also found that boys have better math skills compare than girls. These findings very important becuase has led to some improvement in children confidence and competence in mathematics. However, the analysis also highlighted some future search to be studied.
