School will start in a week. School will start in a week. Allow that to sink in and fester. The call to charge has been sounded and NO ONE seems to know which direction to move. IF there were a sign it would point in both directions. Will we go with the common core? Will the common core be dismissed?
As a classroom teacher I have done my best to stay abreast of changes to the curriculum. In the rush to the common core there have been no changes. There have been no directions. The state has not offered up an curriculum to peruse. Older standards are to be dismissed?
This is my decision…I will adjust to and address the NGSS. The Next Gen Science Standards are the same as the common core goals in science (I think). After reading and filling in tables of gaps it seems to be the same.
God help us all as School Will Start In One Week.
