CC doesn’t have that much to do with content, but it is giant wedge to jam down federalized and corporatized curriculum. I.e., it is a disaster for children and education and the country, but mostly not because of the content.

Common core in the classroom. Common crud in the lunchroom.

I thought that for a sec, but the poster’s history shows is not a fan of El Jebbie, so it was directed to the subject of the thread (even if it looked like it was a swat at me).

What I understand is Common Core comes out of D.C. and eliminates every local area’s understanding of what THEIR students should/need to be taught.

“Jeb Bush defends Common Core school standards”.......

To me, that is the “nail in his coffin” we have been looking for.

Instead of Common Core, it might be better to look at what system the Orientals use to teach their kids. Look at their test scores compared to those who have been brainwashed by these stupid “innovations” such as common core.

Anyone ever asked why are the Orientals not being considered as minorities? Appears pretty obvious.

Is it any wonder Jeb Bush pushes this crap. He is behind the Foundation for Excellence in Education, a nongovernmental group which pushes Common Core and is, of course, funded by Gates.

Common Core is in government schools, which is exactly where your children shouldn't be.

Common Core: Even classroom education has not escaped the tentacles of the Muslim Brotherhood. The connection between Common Core and the international terror group is through, once again, Qatar. The Connect All Schools initiative is a program to promote “One World Education.” It is aligned to Common Core State Standards, and is funded by the Qatar Foundation International (QFI). The director of QFI’s Research Center for Islamic Legislation and Ethics is Tariq Ramadan, grandson of Muslim Brotherhood founder, Hassan al-Banna.
According to WND, in 2011 QFI “partnered with the Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education to facilitate matchmaking between classrooms in the U.S. and international schools through … the “Connect All Schools” project.” QFI explains on its own website that the initiative was founded in response to Obama’s infamous 2009 Cairo speech, during which Obama had the Muslim Brotherhood seated in the front row.
Participation of the Qatar Foundation International puts in proper context the ever more prevalent cases of Sharia (i.e. Islamic law) incursions into American schools, such as: girls forced to cover up like devout Muslims on school sponsored trips to mosques; Islamic vocabulary lessons in high school; the teaching of Islamic culture; teaching the five pillars of Islam and “A call to jihad;” and Qatar investing $5 million to teach Arabic in schools.
Finally, any treatment of Common Core would not be complete without mentioning the involvement of another one of Obama’s mentors, domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. Ayers received $49.2 million from Vartan Gregorian, a board member of Qatar Foundation who is also part of Obama’s White House Fellowships Commission. Gregorian is an integral part of Connect All Schools.

******************************************
CC is a complete dissolution of standard education.

CC includes revisionist history and total trashing of basic mathematics. ...The testing is only a ‘measurement’ of how well a student does vs. the non-traditional material.

Hell. Kids are no longer being taught basic arithmetic or how to write in cursive figures.
