[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child's teacher said that the former HGC curriculum does not meet Common Core. [/quote] Interesting. Yet, presumably, the former seemingly-well-received HGC curriculum represented the best of MCPS. I don't think anyone (even the biggest proponents of Common Core) would suggest that it is the same level or above. So, what's the story? Is Common Core simply different? Is this a semantic question: i.e., yes, the old HGC curriculum was "better" but CC insists on different areas of study? What is it?[/quote] I assume that she meant that the former HGC curriculum did not align with MCPS's Common Core-aligned curriculum -- i.e., Curriculum 2.0. For example, the fifth grade science curriculum now has a unit on force, motion, and energy. Maybe the former HGC curriculum for fifth grade didn't have this unit.[/quote]
