This paper discusses preliminary findings of students’ perceptions on learning Mathematics through an arts- integrated performance task for Grade 8 students. Four domains were uncovered in this paper; fun in learning, relating the arts to daily problem-solving, connecting the learning experience across disciplines, and working in teams. The results of this study show that students welcome this approach and are motivated to learn mathematics through it. It allows students to appreciate mathematics in the light of connections made with arts in a real-world context.
