Get rid of common core. It defies logic.
In essence the ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act) did just that by burying the words and deeds in the latest addition of the No Child Left Behind reauthorization act included in or part of ESSA. My take on ESSA, despite the glowing reviews, if Osama Obama, Harry Reid, and Nancy Pilosi are eager to have it in law, the sane world better be looking very closely at what it contains.
The part that really sucked, was it appeared about 24 hours before the vote, as at least a thousand page bill. Another example of defying logic, using that pilosi tactic of “you have to pass the bill to find out what is in it”. If no one finds that to be treasonous logic, you don’t want to live in my world.
To finish my degree I had to take Math and boy the whole way they do it today is stupid and no wonder most kids don’t get it.
I had to show all my work to the professor. I had to show how I carried over numbers etc when it was so easy to do in my head.
I got some right, but because I had not put down every little way I got the answer the professor marked it wrong.
Oh sorry they don’t say wrong anymore in schools, it is missed it.
I kid you not. They never say they got two problems wrong, but now say they missed two.
At first I was thinking how could you miss the problem wen it was multiple choice. Only two weeks later a kid told me that is what they say now as it is not nice to say they got it wrong.
