Sixth Graders' Common Core Homework: Remove Two Rights from Bill of Rights
cns ^

Posted on 04/01/2014 8:18:32 PM PDT by chessplayer

An Arkansas mom was disturbed to learn her sixth grade daughter's homework was to "prioritize, revise, prune two and add two" amendments in the Bill of Rights. The homework, part of the controversial Common Core curriculum, said that the Bill of Rights is "outdated and may not remain in its current form any longer."

Absolutely shocking! A teacher, at least, needs to be quickly replaced

Only communist “DemocRATS” are brazen enough to ask people to give up their freedoms and their rights. Only cowardly morons respond with which freedoms they are willing to give up.

If the assignment was to remove two amendments to the Constitution, I could go for that.

Why should students be asked to do less than what Obama is trying to do?

The task should be to prioritize the two US Gov’t Depts./Agencies/Services/Bureaus/etc. per month to be s*-canned.

April fools joke?

If not, it’s time to throw the entire ‘education’ system out.... Bathwater and all.

Awright, does someone have a sensible, concise summary of what’s currently wrong with public schools? I need to convince someone holding the “I went to public school [decades ago] and turned out fine” line and is turned off by the high cost of private schools.

I thought surely this is a April Fool’s prank but it looks like this is real. If there are any doubts that Common Core is a liberal / progressive Communist indoctrination scheme flying under the guise of setting higher standards for education this should lay it to rest.

My answer would be the right to vote and the right to abortion.
