Abstract

The study aimed at exploring the presence of the international mathematics standards (NCTM, 2000) in the geometry content in the textbooks of Mathematics at (1st - 4th) grades from the teachers point of view in Tulkarm. The study attempted to answer the following questions, what is the extent of availability of NCTM (2000) in the content of geometry in Mathematics textbooks for grades (1 - 4) from the teachers perspective in Tulkarm? do “the average estimates of teachers” at the level of (a≤0.05) regarding the availability of the geometry standards in the mathematics textbooks of the (1st - 4th) grades differ from the international standards of school mathematics (NCTM, 2000) in light of the variables such as gender, qualification, experience, class, and number of courses? The most important results were as follows, the total degree of availability of the geometry standard from teachers point of view in Tulkarm Governorate was low. There were statistically significant differences in the availability of global mathematics standards in the content of geometry in mathematics textbooks from the teachers’ point of view in Tulkarm due to the variable of “years of experience”, in favor of those with more than 10 years of experience ,and due to the variable of “number of courses” in favor of those who had more than 10 courses.
