      Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe common core refers to the core standards of knowledge & skills that the government requires in public education.

        Yes, but mostly people relate it to math because it teaches kids to solve problems, not just find the right answer. One thing common core math teaches is how to count in groups of 5. You have to show your work in elementary school to get full credit and even if you get the right answer, you could get 0 points because you didn’t solve the problem as required. Conservatives hate this because it makes them use their brain.

      One of those things I hear people rail against as being big government indoctrination and/or something something Obama.
