Kids distraught under ‘botched’ ObamaCore

Kids distraught under ‘botched’ ObamaCore:

"It’s a federal takeover of education that’s so flawed, more teachers, states, parents and students want nothing to do with it.

It’s the Common Core State Standards Initiative, or CCSSI – more often referred to simply as “Common Core.”

In one case, an Arkansas mother of three shared a simple fourth-grade division problem: Mr. Yamada’s class has 18 students. If the class counts around by a number and ends with 90, what number did they count by?

The simple answer is five, because 90 divided by 18 equals five.

But according to Common Core, that logic would be incorrect.

Rather than employing the simple division step, children are expected to draw 18 circles with 90 hash-marks and use 108 steps to solve the problem."
