Abstract
Students lack the ability to express, comprehend, reason, and convey mathematical material logically. As a result, in Asa Local Government Area, Kwara State, the researcher looked into creative-thinking as a factor in the academic achievement of primary school students in mathematics. A descriptive correlation-type survey design was used. There are 2,293 students in the primary six that make up the study's population. 120 students were chosen using a straightforward random sampling method. Both the Mathematics Achievement Test (MAT) and a creative-thinking (QCT) questionnaire were used. The dependability was calculated using Pearson's Product Moment Correlation Coefficient and set at.76. At a significance level of 0.05, the study hypothesis was tested using linear regression. The findings showed a strong association between creative thinking and students' academic achievement in mathematics (F (1,149) =38.227, P 0.05). It is advised that teachers should relate to their students' thoughts and encourage original thought.
