Common Core is one of the heavily debated issues between liberals and conservatives. Common Core is new Obama led initiative being implemented in most school districts nationwide. It’s a centralized system, giving the power over all public school students and their data to Washington.
Besides the logistics that over reach into our children’s test scores, and all the data about that child, Common Core is curriculum that changes the way our children learn. The math portion is so confusing, it is so irrational, its everything that the definition of math is not.
A video of Common Core math went viral recently. It illustrates the problematic issues at the heart of Common Core. Common Core has been compared to Orwell’s “1984″.

“Allright now children – one plus one equals two- unless one of the ones was socially disadvantaged and economically marginalized – then, the equation equals = there is no equality because America is a Capitolist oppressor!”
Common core was made up by idiots for idiots!!!dumbest thing ever created!!!!
Agreed. Sadly, the math is not graded that way. It is sad when a student is forced to use a particular solution method instead of the method that makes best sense.
The correct answer included both solutions, and it often matters how the problem is solved. The child is discouraged from using the method that makes best sense.
Which is the easiest?
The answer must include the commutative rule, which is why the student was marked down for not including “3+3+3+3” in the question’s answer. I am terribly familiar with this math curriculum and kids generally do not like it: my hope is that districts that have not adopted it, don’t adopt it; and those districts that have adopted it drop it.
That’s the dumbest thing I’ve seen.
But why muddy up a simple problem?
Communist core has no place on this earth. Hang all those who push this c**p on our people .
WTH they doing? Thats the question.
