Chalk Talk: Why Were The Common Core Standards Developed?
One of the biggest topics in education today is the wide-ranging implementation of Common Core Standards. Over 46 states have adopted these standards to govern teaching and learning Math and Language Arts, and all public school systems are expected to implement this curriculum. The curriculum was developed for a number of reasons: first, it provides all students in the nation with a set of core, high quality and rigorous standards in these subjects. They take into account career expectations that students will face in the 21st century and make sure that students have the communication and problem-solving skills required in post-secondary life. The curriculum also seeks the development of critical thinking skills and uses the grade level objectives to designate what critical thinking skills students should be developing.
