The current study aimed to define the extent to which the 21st century skills are included in the mathematics book of the third year preparatory stage pupils.

For achieving such objective, the study made use of the analytical descriptive method via analyzing the content of the mathematics book of the third year preparatory stage pupils utilizing the content analysis form, which was developed in the light of the 21st century skills, namely, three domains, 10 main skills, 22 sub-skills and 73 sub-indicators.

The results of the study showed limited inclusion of the 21st century skills in the mathematics book of the third year preparatory stage pupils concerning the three domains, as well as limited inclusion of the main skills apart from the skills of critical thinking and problem solving which was included on a large scale.

In the light of the results attained, the researcher recommended developing unified perspective by the Ministry of Education and those responsible for developing curricula concerning the mechanisms of including the skills of the 21st century into textbooks in general and in mathematics books in particular to unite efforts and work.

The study also recommended holding training workshops for the in-service mathematics teachers concerning how are the 21st century skills incorporated into the mathematics curricula.
