Common Core Executives are getting the Planned Parenthood-style undercover video treatment, and the resulting footage doesn’t look good for Common Core supporters.
Parents and educators alike have long bemoaned the obtuse methods used by Common Core. Simple math problems have become arduous tasks that net the same results, and yet Common Core advocates proclaim the methods are better for the kids, and that adults just aren’t used to it.
Behind closed doors, however, one exec was caught saying “I hate the kids. It’s all about the money.”
By changing the methods by which students accomplish tasks, the publishing houses that make and sell textbooks can force schools to replace their old textbooks that they otherwise might have kept for several years.
The change wasn’t made to better educate, the change was made for the sake of change, and for the sake of renewed textbook sales.
See the video, which includes footage of teachers themselves criticizing Common Core, on the next page:
Umm. I’m not surprised. And if you are, you’re part of the problem.
this winter our school started this common core- it is nightmare and I am Ph D with very extensive background so I can say that common core is tools to keep american students down.
I hate common core, and stay away from America’s schools and children. Parents IMO, keep this trash out of the schools

She is in business to make money selling books she isn’t working with kids, who cares if she likes them? What she said about the textbook scam is true.
To the people behind Common Core……..

Blame the parents?? Ha! Yeah it would be nice to not have to work a full time nursing job and be able to stay home and homeschool my children.. Unfortunately i don’t get “government assistance” and work my butt off Just to make ends meet, then I get to come home after working 11 long hrs and have to help my boys with this frustrating bs common core homework…
