Abstract
The philosophy, specific objectives of teaching mathematics, and expected
learning outcomes stipulated in the National Curriculum 2000 for Mathematics
Classes VI - VIII served as part of the basis of the framework for reviewing the
mathematics curriculum for Middle classes. Current international thrusts in
mathematics education such as the focus on problem solving, emphasis on the
development of thinking skills and positive dispositions, use of technology
whenever it is appropriate and available, and research on how students learn
mathematics are taken into account in this study. The framework given in the
paper shows at a glance what the curriculum should consider as valuable for the
students to learn, what they should learn and how they should learn them. This
paper gives guidelines, synthesises findings and recommends some key elements
for further development and improvement of elementary mathematics curriculum
in Pakistan.
