Most of the assessment standards are quite vague its true. But I believe that sometimes we want to find an exact match. I would suggest that you try and break the sentences down. if you read like this. "Draws and interprets sketches of geometric solids from different perspectives with intention to the preservation of properties." it might confuse you. I suggest you break down to this

1) Draws and interprets sketches of geometric solids from different perspectives.

2) with intention to the preservation of properties.

I think and hope this does not change the meaning of the sentences.

National educational standards are being developed in nearly all subject areas. The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics has recently developed standards for mathematics. Their Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics reflect a concern that students in the U.S. are not mathematically literate and often fail to see the relationship between mathematics learned in school and real-life situations.

I just hope that the students will appreciate math in real life situation so that they can use it in their lives
