Parent Pointer In 1995, a mathematics test was given to fourth graders in 41 nations. This testing was part of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). In looking at how U.S. students did on the test compared to those from other countries, U.S. students did better than the international average in the areas of whole numbers; fractions and proportionality; data representation, analysis, and probability; geometry; and patterns, relations, and functions. Our students were below the international average in measurement, estimation, and number sense.
