[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The first problem: Those K standards should be grade 1 standards. [/quote] Why? It's unrealistic to expect kindergarteners, by the end of the year, to be able to solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem? (For example: Isabella has two hats and Caleb has three hats. Draw a picture to show how many hats they have altogether.) On the Maryland Public Schools forum, I keep reading that Common Core standards are dumbed-down, and everybody's child was doing problems like this in the first year of preschool. [/quote]
