8. 8 Content standards that outline Algebra; Geometry and Measurement; and Probability and Statistics are the essential content for all students. Content standards that outline Algebra; Geometry and Measurement; and Probability and Statistics are the essential content for all students. Process Standards, which support the “Apply Mathematics” Essential Skill, must be taught throughout K-12 mathematics. Process Standards, which support the “Apply Mathematics” Essential Skill, must be taught throughout K-12 mathematics. High school standards address a wide range of depth of knowledge levels to encourage mathematical fluency, deep conceptual knowledge, and mastery of the Essential Skill of “Apply Mathematics.” High school standards address a wide range of depth of knowledge levels to encourage mathematical fluency, deep conceptual knowledge, and mastery of the Essential Skill of “Apply Mathematics.” Guiding Principles and Goals for Oregon’s New Mathematics Standards
