The Times Talks Common Core
The Times has an article about Common Core and why it's no big deal in Washington State. (The article is not in their education blog and I truly get mixed up about the difference between their ed blog stories and their education section stories. But I digress.) They ask a bunch of the usual suspects about CC but they don't do two big things. 1) They don't really explain why there is so much pushback throughout the country. 2) They don't have a SINGLE person with a quote on why they don't like it. Almost as if they don't exist in our state. (You can Google - Washington State Common Core - and guess what you find? Stop Common Core in Washington State . )
