The aims of the research were firstly to investigate the correlation between junior hing math teachers’ belief and the behavior towards Grades 1-9 math Curricula, and secondly to examine the extent of the teachers’ teaching behavior based on their beliefs. Questionnaires were used in the research based on Su’s “The questionnaire of the instructional situation of Math teachers in junior high schools”. The objects are selected via Stratified Random Sampling among the teachers who teach in the four areas, including Taichang City, Taichang County, Changhua County, and Yunlin County. The valid return rate was 84.4% with 539 questionnaires sent out and 473 completed. The data are analyzed by SPSS. The findings are as follows:
1.The teacher belief of Math teachers in junior high school tends to be progressively oriented in all aspects, but the potency of each aspect varied.
