ok. I get this and she did a very good job of exposing more of this trash, BUT how can we get our LOCAL school boards, admins, teachers and parents to see the fallacy of this program that was handed down by the U.N.?
unfortunately unless more and more parents and educators speak out and expose this for what it is; NOTHING will be done because the head honchos in this area are absolutely clueless and are NOT leaders but followers.
The Board of Education meetings are so frustrating to attend, because most of the teachers and the board members think this is such a great thing...they have chugged gallons of Kool-Aid and were practically peeing themselves saying how great Common Core is. I was surrounded by parents after one Board of Ed meeting after I was allowed to briefly speak and was able to get out a few minutes about the data mining Common Core has--they were shocked. Wake up and protest before it is too late!
Its not a waste of money, its ALL about money. No one is going to listen until you have a whole generation of idiots who can not get into college, and then it will be too late.
No, Annie, they will get into college but colleges of the future will be teaching things we learned in the sixth grade because of the dumbing down of America.
Parents you have the power to change this but you never bring things like this to completion. it takes work. contact other parents and start education groups. spread this message asap and when you have a large number of parents educated and opposed to common core, then put pressure on the powers that be armed with truth and proof and don't let up. again; this takes work, but if you care about your children you'll do it and do it NOW.

This is so true. Its a ridiculous way to teach kids how to do math. What a waste of money and time

ReplyDeleteWe have given up on the appointed board and moved on to the legislature. Boards are useless in the fight against common core. KL
