CCSSM Content Standards by Grade and Subject
All students need a high-quality mathematics program designed to prepare them to graduate from high school ready for college and careers. In support of this goal, California adopted the California Common Core State Standards: Mathematics (CA CCSSM) in August 2010, replacing the 1997 statewide mathematics academic standards. As part of the modification of the CA CCSSM in January 2013, the California State Board of Education also approved higher mathematics standards organized into model courses.
The CA CCSSM are designed to be robust, linked within and across grades, and relevant to the real world, reflecting the knowledge and skills that young people will need for success in college and careers. With California’s students fully prepared for the future, our students will be positioned to compete successfully in the global economy.
The CA CCSSM include two types of standards: Eight Mathematical Practice Standards (identical for each grade level) and Mathematical Content Standards (different at each grade level). Together these standards address both “habits of mind” that students should develop to foster mathematical understanding and expertise and skills and knowledge—what students need to know and be able to do. The mathematical content standards were built on progressions of topics across grade levels, informed by both research on children’s cognitive development and by the logical structure of mathematics.
