Abstract

The aim of the study is to understand the nature of mathematical communication and to investigate the relationship between writing and oral mathematical communication skills, and mathematics achievement. The sample of the study consists of (114) male students, who were selected randomly. The study uses two instruments, a writing test and an interview.

The findings show that the level of student communication in both writing and oral communication is average. The findings also show that there is a positive moderate significant correlation between writing mathematical communication and mathematics achievement (r=0.52), and there is a low correlation between oral mathematical communication and mathematics achievement (r=0.29). In light of these findings, the study offers a number of recommendations and suggestions.
