The study was conducted with 46 Grade 3 students and 51 Grade 4 students in the 2019 academic year. The research design was a quantitative correlational-comparative study. The research instrument utilized was the <em>Self-Efficacy for and Enjoyment of Learning Mathematics Questionnaire</em> (SEELMQ), adapted from the <em>Math and Me Survey</em> (Adelson &amp; McCoach, 2011). Descriptive statistics, dependent samples <em>t</em>-tests, independent samples <em>t</em>-tests, and Pearson’s correlation coefficient analysis were used to analyze the data. The findings revealed no significant difference between Grade 3 and Grade 4 students’ self-efficacy for and enjoyment of learning mathematics, but there was a significant difference between students’ self-efficacy for and enjoyment of learning mathematics within their Grade level. Students’ self-efficacy was in a moderate level and students’ enjoyment was in a high level. Moreover, the study revealed a positive strong relationship between students’ self-efficacy for and enjoyment of learning mathematics. Recommendations for school administrators, mathematics teachers, students, parents, and future researchers were provided. ER -
