The paper presents a proposed vision to develop mathematics textbooks content for the primary stage. It offered a framework to organize the content of the mathematics textbooks and indicated the content of each part of the framework. Furthermore, it explained ways of including various theories in the textbooks content, and showed how the developed content facilitates the tests of Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS).
