I won’t pretend to know a lot – or very much at all – about Common Core. In fact, when the murmurs started growing about a year or so ago, the question I asked with my puzzled look intact was, “How does this affect homeschoolers?” Well, now I know some of the answers to that question and I want you to know as well. As tempting as it can be to check out with my often thought response, “Well, that’s just another reason we homeschool,” I think it is important to know what’s going on.
All that to say, are you interested in learning a bit more about the Common Core? Let me point you in the direction of a trusted and thorough source, the Home School Legal Defense Association. They’ve researched and written many articles on the subject, including sharing how it affects homeschoolers.
Thanks Beth. I agree~it’s good to stay abreast with it all.
Thanks, Joanna! It takes discipline though, doesn’t it?
I tend to be the type of person who thinks that if I ignore something I don’t like, it will go away =) Tell me this will happen with the Common Core…right? Uggh. I don’t know a ton either, but what I do know I don’t like! Thanks for sharing the article.
Amy, I am totally with you on that!
