Deep Doo-Doo

Common Core is the new national curriculum being implemented in the American public school system this fall.  I've been around for about 65 years and I've seen all forms of "How-To" programs pass through our school system.  And from what I've read Common Core is about as bad as it gets when you're talking about "How-To" teaching programs.

Don't believe me?  When a teacher shouldn't care if a student believes that 4 X 3 = 11, we're all in deep doo-doo.
