[quote=Anonymous]Here's a great example of what I am talking about: My 3rd grader came home yesterday with a worksheet -- she had to take a TIMED MULTIPLICATION TEST. She was given 5 minutes to answer 50 single digit multiplication questions. Her class has been learning and reviewing their times tables all year long, practicing and practicing to gain fluency with their basic facts. Her teacher says it is because of Common Core. Prior to Common Core, there were no standards for fluency with multiplication facts in the state of MD. Now, there are. I could take a picture of her timed test (she got 100% correct!) and post it on Facebook as an example of Common Core Math. Do you think it would go viral? [/quote]
