Linda Stubblefield says:
I am grandmother of five grandchildren, and I have struggled along with them with Common Core math. Math should be fun, because it require a logical reasoning mind. Common core isn't logical, it's doing math backwards and if it remains in place, I think we'll see the drop out rate rise dramatically. No parent should have to watch a child cry over math problems. Parents should have the right to choose which math learning track is right for their child. I'll guarantee that everyone on your panel who disagrees with that right, would have trouble doing a 7th grade math problem.
