[quote=Anonymous][quote]The Common Core State Standards are a list of standards, with a few appendices which list things like titles to give a sense of reading levels. That's it. That's all they are. If you object to one or more of the standards, then name the standard you object to. If you object to the idea of children in California learning the same thing as children in DC, then explain why. Otherwise, if you're objecting to the choices that states or local education authorities have made in how they choose to design their curriculum or assess student progress, then name the states and the choices and say you object to those. But understand that those things aren't Common Core State Standards. If you object to aspects of NCLB or of RTTT then say that. But understand that neither of those things are Common Core State Standards. [/quote] Do YOU understand that a standard is nothing without implementation? [/quote]
