[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Yes, but which two organizations with offices in DC? The American Dental Association and the Outdoor Advertising Association of America? No. The National Auto Dealers Association and the Mortgage Bankers Association? No. The National Governors Association and the Chief State School Officers Association? Yes! And which groups do those two organizations represent? The state governors and the chief state school officers. Good grief. [/quote] Honey, if you think that Associations equate to states, you have been in Washington much too long. [/quote] OK, you've persuaded me. The Common Core State Standards were developed by two random DC trade associations (the trade association for the manufacturers and distributors of frozen food and the trade association for farmers of Hereford cattle, perhaps), and they were funded by Bill Gates, who is hoping to brainwash students into growing up to buy Microsoft products instead of Apple products via calling for on-grade-level fifth-graders to be able to quote accurately from an informational text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.[/quote]
