comme la planète www.habilidadesparalavida.net Jack’s Famous 427-316 Common Core Math Problem | GFBrandenburg's Blog The math problem listed here has been making the rounds. It’s supposedly from the common core. If you haven’t seen it, it supposedly shows Jack using some number line to subtract 427 minus 316. A lot of writers have been dumping on it. I think they’re missing something — there are at least TWO errors in the work of this imaginary Jack. The idea of trying to figure out where someone else got something wrong isn’t the worst idea in the world. As a mental exercise, number lines like this are not an entirely useless method. Nobody seems to have pointed out that Jack made two math errors, not just one. Since this problem asks 427-316, if you are doing this in your head, you could either count backwards from 4 by 3 units, or ask yourself how far it is from 3 to 4 — obviously 1. But it’s not only in the mathematics that the imaginary Jack made an error: I’m not sure, but it seems like the problem writer wanted Jack to confuse 16 and 60. Did they really intend for the problem to be that difficult?

Drums and Jordan Davis: Unpacking the Historical Fear of Black “Loudness” by Rev. Dominique C. Atchison of The Mad Preacher I perform with a group that recreates the Ring Shout in a contemporary context. (Shout out to Dance Diaspora Collective!) The Ring Shout was a dance done by enslaved Africans in the Americas, specifically in the Sea Islands off of the coast of Georgia and the Carolinas. According to reports, Michael Dunn felt justified in getting out of his car and shooting several bullets into another car because the loudness of the music evoked fear. There are going to be some who will argue that the sorts of music that young African American men tend to listen to is violent; therefore, Mr. The “loud music” coming from the car where Jordan Davis sat was no different than the “loud music” that came from the outlawed drums of our ancestors. But in 2014, I think it may be time for white people to take some of the accountability. I personally am not sure how the jury could determine that Mr. Related:

.Tronch initiale REDALYC- búsqueda especializada The Common Core Tragedy | INforefront - Indiana political commentary Common Core is dead. The Indiana General Assembly sentenced it, legislatively, and the governor affixed his signature to the death certificate. The obituary was in today’s paper. It was a slow death and not a particularly noble one. Legislators, who had until now, not paid much attention to things such as education standards, suddenly felt compelled to do so. Some offering, helpfully, that they supported it until President Obama was for it. Legislating is complicated. It’s easy to understand their outrage. Range of Reading and Level of Text Complexity: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RL.3.10 By the end of the year, read and comprehend literature, including stories, dramas, and poetry, at the high end of the grades 2-3 text complexity band independently and proficiently. See what I mean? The state’s superintendent of public instruction witnessed the execution. While fascinating, the death of Common Core is a study in politics, not policy. A tragedy indeed.
