[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Which standards, specifically, don't you like? And what do you mean by "control education"? How will the federal government use the Common Core standards to control education? And what about the states that did not adopt the Common Core? [/quote] I have problems with lots of the math standards. Also, with 60% of the reading be non-fiction. I think that is an arbitrary requirement.[/quote] Which math standards? And what do you think that the percentage of non-fiction should be? Keeping in mind that the idea is not that 60% of reading in English class should be non-fiction, but rather that 60% of the student's entire reading, in all of the classes together, should be non-fiction. Or do you not think that there should be any requirements for fiction and non-fiction?[/quote]
