[quote=Anonymous]I love everyone pushing the common core math as the right way to teach math. So far test scores across the board have gone down and now they are taking away final exams and rounding up grades. How are we going to see if this way is the right way? You have to be a complete idiot to get anything less than a C in any class in MCPS. And personally there are many hard working professionals that learned math the old way for decades and did just great. Dumbing down and over-explaining numbers just slows the process. It can help a few struggling kids but the only reason it appears to be working in a classroom setting is because parents supplement the snail crawl curriculum. [/quote]
