Abstract
In this highly technological and competitive world, teaching mathematics on the area mathematical problem solving becomes stressful not only on the theory but more so on practice. Teaching the pupils in mathematical-dimensional ways of caring the pigs, chickens and others will provide the first grades to the sixth grades appropriate opportunities to learn to apply the mathematical principles acquired by them by actually applying to useful things to improve their ways in solving problems. Negative attitude/behavior is a normal action being observed form any individual when he attends classes of his own like or dislikes. Mathematics is one of the subject matters that is to be considered important but why some individuals find it difficult if not to fear. the direct cause of either fear nor difficulty can easily be defected. The pupils may find it difficult of fear because he had been fearful or many great things without obvious cause, the teacher should look into his general background for possible reasons. His sense of uneasiness and unexplained behavior may be due to poor health and unhappy home life or lack of neither friends nor his teacher on the school environment.

Some children's behavior is entirely outgrown in the course of time. Some disappear or reappear; others are replaced various expressions of anxiety and tensions. The best cure negative behavior in mathematics is to bring it out in the open and talk about it, or even joke about it. Children are usually eager to overcome this negative behavior in mathematics when they reach the point and they will try to compute and talk freely about things that troubling them. They usually are able to recognize teh cause for themselves and negative behavior will likely to disappear.
