As most countries place emphasis on competency-based education in mathematics to prepare for the future, it's important to create reliable testing instruments. The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a mathematical competency assessment tool that incorporates teaching aids. Initially, 16 stages of testing tools from K-1 to B-IV were developed for the validation process. Following this, a total of 6,430 lower elementary school students, including kindergarteners, were administered these assessment tools, and the completed results of 3,234 were analyzed. This study underscores that the developed assessment tools have proven to be valid and reliable in accurately reflecting students' mathematical competencies. Additionally, these tools, using teaching aids, were effective in engaging young students in the evaluation process and assessing their mathematical competencies accurately. The study concludes with a proposal for future research on the development of high-quality questions, teacher training, and the incorporation of more diverse teaching aids, including virtual manipulatives, for evaluating mathematical competencies in kindergarten and elementary school students.
