Analysis of Mathematical Operations Content for Grades (4th, 5th, and 7th Grades) Books in Jordan According to the Standards of Mathematics NCTM (2000)

Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the extent of mathematical operations containment in mathematics books for the basic stage in Jordan in light of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Standers (NCTM, 2000), concerning the mathematical operations (NCTM, 2000). That is by employing the descriptive approach. The study sample consisted of all mathematics books for grades: Jordan's first and fourth basic grads. The study had been conducted in the second semester of (2020\2021) results of the operations in these books.The standards ratios were: %32, %33, %38, %38, and %39 for problem-solving, thinking, relations in mathematics, representation, and communications. In light of these results, the study recommends increasing the induction of mathematics books for the grade (4th,5th, and 7th), the standards of mathematical operations for their significance in this stage in developing the mental abilities of the child, developing its mathematical skills, and enhancing its mathematical thinking.
