A total of 25 respondents from the treatment group used Bar Circle Method for intervention process whereas 25 respondents from the control group used conventional method in the teaching and learning process. The quantitative data was analysed using descriptive statistic and inferential statistic. Based on the independent sample t-test, the mean score of treatment group differed from the mean score of control group significantly [t(48) = 9.535, p < 0.05]. In conclusion, pupils from the treatment group who went through the teaching and learning using Bar Circle Method showed better achievement in the multiplication of two numbers compared to pupils from the controlled group.
