New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards in Mathematics
Since our schools need to produce both excellent thinkers and excellent doers, the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards describe what students should know and be able to do. Each content area has numbered standards followed by a descriptive statement. The descriptive statement provides a brief overview of the content and skills enumerated in the standard. The NJCCCS embody a vision of the skills and understandings all of New Jersey 's children need to be successful in their careers and daily lives. The five mathematics standards appear below, followed by a link to what the standards mean for each grade level.
