In addition, in the way of activities to research and throughout the process of study, the teacher can make great strides in practicing the research.The research adopted the way of average activities, the research adapted Mr.Yuan-liang Wu(1996) to develop the “Elementary Mathematics Attitudes measurement scale” to collect quantification data. To get data by the videos of class, the interview records of the students, the notes of teaching, the contents of Mathematics Writing Sheets…etc. After a month teaching activities, the conclusions are as follows: During practicing experiencing Mathematics writing, the research not only deeply digest the teaching knowledge and material of Mathematics Writing but also understand the students’cerebrating processes of answering questions. In the light of some mistaking possibilities of the students, adjust teaching methods and materials timeliness and focus on students’learning, and it promotes teachers remarkable advance in teaching. In the process of learning Mathematics Writing, discussing and giving comments and questions to each other provide the students more chances of communications and performances and bring more confidences and interests by learning math. Their math learning and their attitude toward math have positive changed. During the process of Mathematics Writing helps students learn math, it starts to develop the skills of solving problem in many ways, emphasize the apprehension from learning math, help to generalize the knowledge of math, and move up the fruitage of learning math. Students think that Mathematics Writing activities help them to learn math and they keep positive thoughts generally. They hope they can keep on learning math in this way.
