4th Grade Common Core Math Problem Takes 108 Steps to CompleteMelissa Melton This would be kinda funny if it wasnt so damn sad (or real life). Check out this video of mother-of-three Karen Lamoreaux, member of Arkansas Against Common Core, completely owning the ridiculous educational failure that is the Common Core State Standards in her testimony before the Arkansas Board of Education on Monday. After listening to what was said this morning, I have come to the conclusion that this board is clearly as uninformed as the parents were when these standards were adopted. Oooh burn. Too bad the board cut Lamoreaux off after only four minutes. She didnt even get a chance to mention the privacy and testing concerns she had. Then again, to list all the concerns she probably actually has about Common Core wouldnt have taken a mere session; it might have easily taken all day (or week or month or). These are the rigorous standards that will make our children college-ready? Wha? Did the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland write these standards when he was smoking crack? Wooooow. No wonder New York principals are reporting deep concern over the fact that their elementary school students are becoming so upset during Common Core testing, they are literally throwing up and soiling themselves. Thatd make me want to puke, too. And then theres the fact that this generation will be running society pretty soon Contributed by Melissa Melton of The Daily Sheeple.Melissa Melton is a writer, researcher, and analyst for The Daily Sheeple and a co-creator of Truthstream Media.
