A Proposal Vision to Develop Geometry Content for Grades (7-9) of the Basic Stage in Yemen in Light of (CCSSM) Standards

Abstract

The research seeks to reveal the extent to which the content of geometry، measurement، and trigonometry is included in mathematics textbooks for grades (7-9) of the basic stage in Yemen in light of the American Common Core Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM).  It presents a proposed vision for developing the content of geometry، measurement، and trigonometry in mathematics textbooks for grades (7-9) for the basic stage in Yemen in light of the American Common Core Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM). The research adopted the descriptive analytical approach، through the process of analyzing the geometry content of mathematics textbooks for grades (7-  9) of the basic stage in Yemen in light of the American Common Core Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM)، which contain (8) study units distributed over the two semesters (first and second)، and the total number of pages (307) pages، approved by the Ministry of Education، scheduled for the academic year 2023/  2024. The analysis was done using a content analysis form prepared in light of the American Common Core Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM)، and the results revealed a weak availability of the American Common Core Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) in the content of geometry، measurement، and trigonometry in mathematics textbooks for grades (7-9) of the basic stage in Yemen.  The research recommended urging the competent authorities to develop mathematics textbooks at the basic stage in light of the new trends، including the CCSSM standards، and to benefit from the proposed vision that resulted from this research.
