[quote=Anonymous]PARCC is aligned to the Common Core standards, which every school is DC is supposed to align its curriculum to. Agree with the standards or not, explaining how one can derive an answer is a core part the standards. And yes it is required even when you just “know” the answer. It sounds like your child and perhaps their school has some work to do. As for typing, every state is now using a computer-based test for proficiency. Even the old “IOWA” from my childhood assessments are now administered online. If you don’t care about your child learning to type enough to write a few sentences, that’s fine. But you have to accept that their scores may be a little lower than their peers. It isn’t like 3rd grade PARCC is going to determine whether and where they go to college. [/quote]
