[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]don't want to comment on the teaching's doing, but math is math, there is no "common core" math or old-fashioned math. Parents out there, teach your kids math whatever way that works. "Common core" way is not the only way to learn and is not necessarily the best. [/quote] Well... I got fed up with some of the strategies for addition and subtraction from the common core that I didn't understand, and I just taught my kid the usual way how to add and subtract. Then the next time he did an assignment he just added and subtracted my way and didn't show his work, and the teacher (rightly, I suppose) marked him down for it. She never specifically asked me not to teach him (I am not OP) but I can imagine it did make her life more difficult.[/quote]
