Georgia is failing by thinking this way of teaching the kids of the future is the best way. Listen to the parents and teachers.

It's difficult to see my Honor Student struggling and officially failing because of this "curriculum" that isn't developmentally appropriate.

I Do Not like Common Core! I have a 4th and 5th grader...I'm not the greatest in math anyways and my husband is a math major. He helps them with their math and they still get some wrong because it wasn't done the way they were taught. We can't really help them because they are taught differently then we were when we were in school!

Common Core just doesn't make sense. Wouldn't brick a house before pouring a foundation or building a frame so why would we teach our kids like this. They should have a foundation and build on it. I am really passionate in my belief that common core doesn't work!

Common Core is the Federal Government's way of dumbing down society so one day they can be easily taken over. Their standards are not even comming from educators. Parents and teachers need to stand up fro what is right for this country and our children. "WE THE PEOPLE" not "they the people"

Common core is not teaching students how to think. It is discouraging students and turning them away from academics. Please return to teaching without using this common core curriculum.

After 10 weeks into school the math is becoming more and more confusing for my fourth grader. Please stop common core and let's get back to teaching.

Not only is this Common Core system a wasting of time, it opens the door for educators/counselors/medical professionals to label our children as "learning deficit".

My straight A son is now coming home with C's and F's. Even though he knows the answer he is getting problems wrong for not completing all the steps. My child as a right to fair education and not be left behind. Extremely mad at this system!

Common CRAP Math questions make NO SENSE! They are clearly brainwashing (do this and then this and this random thing) and absurd reading comprehension problems. There is little to NO MATH involved and scoring depends, not on the correct answer and sharp critical thinking skills, but on mind-reading abilities of the student. Now they are advertising for CommonCrap on television! Where did they get the money to do that? And why would you need to advertise for something that is supposedly so great, not to mention mandatory? Smells fishy! Your vote is your power!

Common core was put into place to dumb down middle and lower class children to make them more compliant. Bill Gates is a major funder but his children go to a private school that does not use common core. That should be reason enough. If it's not good enough for the elite, why is it good enough for our children?
