It has been a challenge making the change but I love the way that is more rigorous than what we previously used.

Talking to my grandchildren it is so fun to tell stories about when I was a little girl and how things have changed. <br />I still am a firm believer in the power of morals and values being taught by parents and teachers so that we are raising a group of young people that still value integrity and responsibility and have good Character. Aren’t you??<br />I like the new CC but my school was founded on that principle...we follow the Core Knowledge program..(they wrote the books "Everything Your Kindergartener (1st,2nd,3rd,4th,5th,6th,7th,8th) Should Know" They were on the bandwagon a long time ago to make learning universal in the USA...<br />“Anywho”, I am tickled pink that you wrote the CC Kindergarten Book..THANK-YOU.<br />Fondly, Barbara<br />bharmor@hotmail.comBarbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02525887776816216382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2269941892593521560.post-80876493758919402852012-06-18T18:16:20.284-07:002012-06-18T18:16:20.284-07:00Thanks for posting the video.

That is exactly what I've been thinking I need (but I'm way too lazy to make my own). The intermediate teacher at my school found a website (that's expensive) that tracks student achievement and helps individualize instruction for the standards, but that seemed like much more than I needed. Thank you, thank you!!! <br /><br />I just read the Tiger's Wife and it was great, very different than 50 Shades, but I was ready for some intellectual stimulation (as opposed to 50 Shades type stimulation). I also recommend Mudbound. It was a quick read, but really good.<br />leahzilberman@gmail.comLeah Zilbermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05701396046822069781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2269941892593521560.post-86946568150240675992012-06-18T15:37:08.324-07:002012-06-18T15:37:08.324-07:00Thanks for all the information.

Our master teachers shared a video with us that explained that the US was something like 23rd in Education. Sad. I'm glad the CCSS are here. Hopefully it will push us all - teachers, students & parents, to increase our value on education and our commitment to our future. <br /><br />Katy<br /><a href="http://kindergartenkaty.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Kindergarten Katy</a>Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16377664922096500802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2269941892593521560.post-53454015885076996172012-06-18T12:45:50.276-07:002012-06-18T12:45:50.276-07:00Thanks for sharing all of your great ideas!

My book club is reading the book, The Lottery by Patricia Wood about a young man with an IQ of 76 who wins the lottery. Along with that we are reading a young adult novel called Out of My Mind by Sharon Draper. It is about a 5th grade girl born with cerebral palsy and is unable to communicate at the beginning of her young life. I have already finished that one - SO GOOD!!!! We are really looking forward to talking about these 2 books together. <br /><br />Thanks for posting about CC. Sometimes, it can be so overwhelming - you don't know where to start. <br /><br />AliciaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10036324858820974255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2269941892593521560.post-20796665254103890892012-06-18T06:34:22.840-07:002012-06-18T06:34:22.840-07:00Thank you for all of your help in figuring out wha...Thank you for all of your help in figuring out what the standards mean for us and for our kids.
