Aside from this fiasco what is the general opinion of Common Core by conservatives?
20 year private school (recently retired) teacher. CC is a key to the doors of schools. With this key a group of people gain access to what is taught, and how it is taught. Content is controlled by the curriculum guides, and the subsequent tests that must be taken. The darker purpose, as it relates to the social studies & literature, is to 1)remove the notion of “classic” 2) to substitute modern Progressive texts 3) fashion lessons that move students toward social action. Who is the group getting ahold of this key? William Ayers put his weatherman bombs away to pursue a PhD and career with just this in mind. And of course there are legions just like him all putting this into place.
You aak: “Aside from this fiasco what is the general opinion of Common Core by conservatives?”
Wake up, Sheeple.
