[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I know that CC is a standard. I have no problem with their set of standards. I have a problem with the way they teach math. The school is following a textbook that someone wrote and somehow this piece of garbage got approval by the some Education department somewhere. I have seen many other examples over the Internet of equally bad examples from other textbooks. So that, in combination with rising rates of home-schooled kids, leads me to think it's not just our school and it's not just our state, it's a common problem (pun intended).[/quote] Yes, it is a common problem. There were plenty of bad math textbooks and workbooks and curricula before the Common Core standards, and the Common Core standards (not surprisingly) have not magically solved this problem. But as the PP says, your objection is not to the Common Core standards. Your objection is to the bad math teaching in your daughter's school.[/quote]
