This study aimed to investigate the use of SMS messages to gather data about student learning in mathematics in two public schools of Punjab. The case study using convenient sampling involved 45 boys and 30 girls from primary boys‟ and primary girls‟ public schools. The main objectives of the study were to: i) assess mathematical skills of grade 4 students (ii) find out if SMS can be used to assess mathematical skills of students (iii) find out if the results of SMS testing are the same as paper and pencil test. The researcher developed math assessment for grade 4 students based on the curriculum. Pre and post assessment was done with paper and pencil onsite to see if the results of the SMS assessment show the actual learning of students in the selected units of mathematics. The results of SMS assessment matched the paper and pencil test except the results on the first two questions of addition in which students performed better with the paper and pencil test. It is therefore recommended that testing of mathematical skills of students in upper elementary grades can be done through SMS if the students are informed and the school administration agrees with the approach.
