Would your first grader pass this weird Common Core math test?
"What is a “related subtraction sentence?” If you don’t know, you may
not be able to pass a mathematics exam designed for first graders under
the Common Core curriculum guidelines.
Carol Burris, an acclaimed New York high school principal who writes a
blog about education issues, recently posted a first grade math test
that one of her employee’s daughters had failed. The test–which caught the
eye of The Washington Post’s Valerie Strauss–features several questions
with awkward wording that could trip up adults, to say nothing of
six-year-olds.
Pearson [the test developer] has also been criticized for designing worksheets with
politically leading questions. A section on possessive nouns contains
statements such as, “The commands of government officials must be obeyed
by all,” and “An individual’s wants are less important than the
nation’s well-being.” [The Daily Caller]
