[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is my first year student teaching. My daughter is four, so I hadn't been exposed to the common core before this year. My kindergarten class is drowning in common core waters. It takes a truly remarkable teacher to get kids up to these levels. Some of it is easy and seems like common sense. Others, not so much. I'm really worried about the future of education. I've strongly considered quitting, but I'm too far in now. Everyone at the school keeps telling me that to just do my five years and try to get a job working with policy. [/quote] Thanks from a note from the trenches. I imagine a lot of people will be abandoning teaching as the futility of these standards and testing takes hold. [/quote]
