“Our job is to educate students. To look at both sides. And I think that that’s what Common Core wants you to do. Critical thinking,” said one attendee. How does one look at a math problem from "both sides"?
How does one look at correct English grammar from "both sides"?
How does one look at the ability to read from "both sides"?
How does one look at a FACT from "both sides"?
THESE are the things our schools are supposed to be teaching. Issues that have a "both sides" to them are for more advanced classes, which should only be taught once students have thoroughly learned "reading, writing and arithmetic".

I’m sure they don’t teach history from “both sides”.

Your post reveals a worldview that the lefties don’t share.
Your post is based on the assumption that “objective truth” and “objective reality” actually exist.
The don’t believe that.
