“Common Core Math 2+2=5.”

Common Core math is even worse than that. It’s more like :

2 + 2 = racist

- OR -

2 + 2 = 37*15 - 62+7 + 10 +52 - 6y = if it is too hard don’t do it. If it doesn’t make and sense to you, you are a racist.

***

On a more serious note, I was reading about Common Core bridging the way to learning calculus. That’s funny. I mean, I can *see* that, but half the crap they shove down kid’s throats is stuff they’ll learn on their own as they master arithmetic.

Moreover, our schools don’t *need* to teach math this way. They need kids to master the mechanics of arithmetic to thrive. This garbage they’re peddling is nothing more than a way keep kids at the mercy of their teachers and eliminate parents helping their kids learn the basics.
