[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My DH and I both went to the teacher to discuss this particular issue. Full disclosure, I have been disappointed/upset by 2.0 from the beginning and have done my share of venting about it to my DH. He's more "hands-off" and trusting of the system than I am, so he assumed that my venting/ranting about 2.0 must be exaggerated, etc. :D Well, after our meeting, and listening to a teacher tell us that there really wasn't an answer to the "why" portion of the question (then proceeded to tell us that the obvious answer to "why" was, in fact, wrong?!?!?), he changed his tune on 2.0. That meeting was really eye opening. It seemed to suggest a math curriculum written by folks who are somewhat math-phobic in order to make math a subjective, language-based discipline. [b]That's not what math is[/b]. [/quote] And.. it isn't what Common Core State standards in math are.[/quote]
