More Stand Up Against Common Core!

This lady eviscerates Common Core in 3 minutes! It is ridiculous to think that our kids have to be exposed to this. And don't buy the excuse that state legislature is making changes, they don't have they education to make changes and they are only promising that to calm the "few" until all is forgotten and things settle back down. In other words, until the sheep are orderly again, believing anything that comes down from the top. It is like so many who hang their very life on every word of their doctor, when most of the time their doctor is just guessing and taking pot shots at a diagnosis. Copy this into you browser and watch this young woman decimate the smug proponents of Common Core! http://www.bizpacreview.com/2013/12/18/arkansas-mom-destroys-common-core-in-four-powerful-minutes-89152

MODERN CHAOS

This is the learning environment for hundreds of thousands of students in American schools today. Utter chaos: Disrespect for teachers and disrespect for each other: Secret bullying, stealing clothes, pencils, food and threatening family: Campus fights nearly everyday: Never knowing when one of those dramas will turn into a gun battle: A classroom noise level that is unbelievable: Great grades given if you are a favorite student: Extra points given that you didn't earn: Report cards revealing a child's true progress? No! Parents are so deceived by report cards today. Is this what you want your child to grow up in? Learning will not be the priority I can assure you. Academics are only a shadow, and a faint one, in schools today. The only way change will happen is when massive numbers of parents pull their children out of brick and mortar schools, form co-ops, whatever it takes, and teach their own precious children and school them in a wholesome value system which this country is sorely lacking. If you can't teach, then let internet videos do it for you. There are many free sites and resources. If you can afford it, place them in a small home school; one that doesn't operate on the herd learning mentality.(This eliminates many private schools-as most of them have adopted the disaster that is Common Core). The result will be a better educated student who feels loved instead of daily rejection and manipulation. Then the fun club that American education has become will come tumbling down, just like her international averages have come tumbling down until she is lower than Zimbabwe in some subjects! If you love your children, you will extricate them from the train wreck of MODERN CHAOS - American Education - while it is still legal to do so.
