I am consistently spending time with my daughter trying to figure out how to do her math. I ask you how this makes sense.
Which subtraction sentences show you how to find 15-7?
A. 15-6=9, 9-8=1
B. 15-5=10, 10-5=5
C. 15-5=10, 10-2=8
D. 15-2=13, 13-2=11
What is wrong with 15 - 7 = 8?
Why must we reinvent the wheel?
Mr. President, the new Common Core educational program is doing nothing more than making our nations youth stupid! When a child doesn't understand questions like this, schools go further to make children feel even more stupid by placing them in special education. How can I expect my child to understand questions like this when I can't understand it myself. Common Core is harming our nations youth and its time we address this as a real issue!
