Robinson’s Weblog #014: Poor Poor Common Core Part Three: The Hullabaloo

When I started writing Robinson’s Weblog #012: Poor Poor Common Core Part One: What's All The Hullabaloo About?, which is about the controversy sparked by the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), I was going to outline the public concerns over these new standards. But I ended up taking it in different direction and  instead, I wrote about the importance of preparing our students for informed, participatory citizenship as adults. Not quite as exciting, right? I know. I know. But, if you’d like to read up on the issues people are having with the CCSS, click this link to see Larry Ferlazzo’s list of ‘The Best Articles Sharing Concerns about Common Core Standards.’
