This is how a student can fight their anxiety on Mathematics by enjoying their lessons through the help of games strategy. The goal of mathematics teaching in the Philippines is mathematical empowerment. Critical thinking and problem-solving are the twin-goals of Mathematics in basic education. As an aid to this situation, this study was held in Tagaytay Central School to study the efficiency of having games instead of traditional teaching. This study focused on the constructivist theory of Jean Piaget which is learning by doing. Z-Test was applied to the quantitative data of the pre-test and post-test to have the decision on the effectiveness of the study. The results indicated that there was a significant difference between the respondents' scores in mathematics. This study shows that the integration of games in teaching mathematics was effective. The effectiveness of integrating games in teaching Mathematics is advanced ER -
