Oregon State Dept. of Education, Salem.
This document is designed to help school personnel analyze their current curriculum for grades 6, 7, and 8 in terms of the Mathematics Common Curriculum for Oregon. The common curriculum goals are organized into nine content strands: (1) number and numeration; (2) appropriate computational skills; (3) problem solving; (4) geometry and visualization skills; (5) measurement; (6) statistics and probability; (7) mathematical relationships; (8) oral and written communication skills; and (9) appropriate study skills. Each strand contains knowledge and skills to be developed with expected outcomes for students to achieve by the end of grade 8. Columns are provided to indicate the extent to which the expected outcomes are emphasized by (1) amount of instruction, (2) inclusion in course goals, (3) inclusion in instructional materials, and (4) coverage in staff training. Results of the analyses can be compiled and used to guide staff training and selection or development of materials. (RH)
