[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yes! Common Core is a thought straitjacket. It requires all children to learn the same things in the same ways and express them in exactly the same ways. It's interesting -- and sad and frightening -- to hear those from China say it's very similar to the Chinese system. No creative thought, but hey, they're good test takers! [/quote] "Those from China" who? Who has said this, and where have they said it? I'm also not sure how CCSS.Math.Content.3.NBT.A.1 Use place value understanding to round whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100. or CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RL.3.1 Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers. are "thought straitjackets", unless you maybe you think that doing math in base 10 is mindless conformity, or that schools should not expect an understanding of written language, but ok.[/quote]
