Yahoo! No intro today! Intro meaning the opening speech before the actual post, wait nooooooooooooo! This is an intro. DARN!
My post title is called Itchy finger typing, because when I don't know what to write I just write things like "HELLO" or "HELLO KELLY" it just is a placeholder, I get rid of it later, but I thought it would be funny if I told you about it. Sometimes, I'm not even aware, I've done it so many times that it just comes naturally if I don't type anything for more than 6 seconds or so. Since I want to do something other than tell you about it, I'm going to continue my criticism of common core in math.
The repeat thing is really big. DO THEY HAVE TO REVIEW PLACE VALUE AGAIN?! I mean seriously, come on! They really should look at last year's books, 'cause the standards are almost the same. Why don't they just get to the point with all the diagrams, models, and other random stuff? In real life, are you ever going to have a paper to draw a diagram? Do you really need to conceptually understand a skill, before learning the procedure. This makes lessons twice as long, one for procedure, one for conception. You get to less. Math books should definitely revolve around what teachers want to teach, if teachers go off the book to much, that is a sign the book is bad.
