Easy fix:
Call 10th grade math 9th grade math and start up again in the fall.
IF they start (betting they don’t).
In Prince George’s County, next to DC, the ones who do eventually graduate Have an average 9th grade reading level, and a 7th grade math level.
I don’t imagine life will be any harder for those with a 6th grade math level instead of a 7th grade one.
So now they’re going to graduate with 7th grade level math instead of 8th?
A lot of kids are getting very needed lessons in Economics.
Incredible that “conservatives” are pushing this BS. A good, old school math teacher can be helpful, sure, but the key to learning math is doing math. A good, challenging set of problems + good instructional videos on YouTube or elsewhere by people that actually understand math is likely to be better teaching than most American students receive in their classrooms. No “common core” nonsense that simply confuses and wastes time. No random insertion of leftist politics.
Can only speak for my grand niece who is in 3rd grade The school has provided for instruction for a month now. Parent picked up chrome lap tops last week. The rest of instruction will be on computer. Since I am a retired teacher I have been giving her instruction. We start at 9:30am and go till 11:30. Then recess and lunch till 12:30. Usually finish around2:00 sometimes a little later depending on how quickly she understands the maths,
They don’t know enough math for it to make a difference.
Did any of you ever attempt to pay a young cashier by giving him the odd change to round up what you get back to the next dollar?
Example. The bill comes to $10.25. You hand him $20.25 and unless he has one of the electronic registers that figures the change (I know most stores now have them)the cashier will stare at the money you gave him in dumb confusion until you tell him what he owes you back.
Does reading this article plainly say —
There ain’t no such thing as equaility —ie - equal outcomes for all abilities ??
That old one— Should women coal miners be paid as much as a man since she only produces 1/2 to 2/3 that the guy does in output ??
WHAT MATH???
These kids today can NOT read an Analog clock.
They all want digital clocks in every classroom.
I guess none of these kids have PARENTS.
LOL.....losing a year of CommieCore math is actually a GOOD thing.
Hopefully, many are being taught old or old-new math, during this opportunistic time.
And it will not be noticeable.
By missing Common Core Math?
I think they are going to come out further ahead than ever.
