How Common Core is wrecking kindergartner -- with SPECIFIC examples

Are those the criteria you use to decide whether they are good?

It's a start. Bad ingredients. False information makes me pretty skeptical.

What false information?

What about your state's previous standards?

What false information?

Teachers did not help write them
They were not vetted.

Teachers were involved in the standards. Maybe not to the extent that you think they should have been, but they were involved.

As for vetted -- what would you consider "vetted"? People did examine them carefully, which is my definition of vetted.

What about the standards in your state before the Common Core standards? Did teachers help write those standards? How were they vetted?

because you say so? Because the website says so?

Teachers should have examined them carefully and provided feedback over an extended period of time--and they actually should have been validated as well.

Far more than these.

But the Common Core website doesn't say that teachers examined them carefully and provided feedback over an extended period of time and that the standard were validated (again, what would you consider "validation"?). So it's not providing false information.

How about the standards in your state before the Common Core standards? Were they validated? How were they validated?

Which state? How much did the teachers help write those standards? How were the standards vetted? How do you know about the teacher involvement and the vetting of the previous standards?

Yes, because the website says so. Unless you have evidence that the people the website says were involved were not actually involved?

Please tell me which classroom teachers were involved in writing the standards.

Now I'm going to link to the Common Core website, and then you're going to tell me that's false information, and then we'll be back where we started.

Insults are easy. Substantive comments are harder.

Lack of critical thinking is YOU, who despite being provided a website which lists what organizations were involved, which shows the development timeline, which links to numerous other documents describing the committees and workgroups, along with who was involved, you keep repeating the same unsubstantiated argument of "they were secret" and "they weren't vetted" and "there were no teachers involved" along with repeatedly asking questions which the site answers, like "who selected the committee members" Answer: (Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) and National Governors Association Center for Best Practices).

READ. Critical thinking involves getting the facts, not running hog-wild pumped full of unsubstantiated bullshit from right wing conspiracy theorists.
