In accordance with Oklahoma statutes, the State Board of Education reviews every 3 years the state curriculum for kindergarten through grade 12.

Part 1 of the document presents the kindergarten curriculum, including an overview of requirements for developmental appropriateness, and student objectives in the areas of social skills, creative skills, language arts, mathematics, motor skills, science, and social studies. Part 2 gives an overview and student objectives either for each grade or combined grades as appropriate in the core curriculum areas of language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, the arts, and languages. Part 3 presents student objectives for instructional technology, health/safety and physical education, technology education/hands-on career exploration, and information literacy. Part 4 discusses possible measurement methods for priority academic student skills, provides background information regarding testing mandates for 1993 through 1999, differentiates norm-referenced and criterion-referenced test, and identifies the academic skills to be measured by Oklahoma's criterion-referenced tests for grades 5, 8, and 11.
