The purpose of the current research is to evaluate the content of mathematics student's textbooks in the primary school according to the national standards for mathematics curriculums.

The descriptive method has used through using content analysis, and the research sample consisted of mathematics books for the fourth, fifth and sixth grades in the primary school.

The instrumentation of the research was a content analysis checklist that was designed in the light of National standards for mathematics curriculums.

Findings revealed that the level of availability of the four content standards with a mean for each of (2) as follows: the level of availability of "numbers and operations "branches "average" with (M=1.25), and the level of availability of "Algebra and Analysis" branch is "average" with (M= 0.84), the level of availability of "engineering and measurement" branch is "average" with (M= 0.86).

Finally the level of availability of "Statistics and probabilities" branch is "Low" with (M= 0.65).

In light of the findings, a number of recommendations were suggested, including: Reviewing and developing textbooks in light of the performance standards for the four content standards, which were not available in light of analysis of the fourth, fifth and sixth grades textbooks in the primary school, to be processed and included in national standards for mathematics curriculums.
