“In other words, while the Common Core may provide the “map,” it’s up to the school districts to undertake the journey to make sure the new standards fulfill their promise for students whose futures depend on them.”

Interesting commentary and vignettes about what Common Core is looking like on the ground. To be honest, I wish my kids were in Kindergarten this year, getting in on the ground floor of this way of thinking.
