There are so many stories that I could tell — the story
of my guidance counselor's sixth - grade, learning disabled child who feels like a failure due to constant testing, a principal
of an elementary school who is furious with having to
use to
use a book he deems inappropriate for third graders because his district bought the State Education Department approved
common core curriculum, and the frustration
of math teachers due to the ever - changing rules regarding the
use of calculators on the tests.
Anyone can get a ton
of information from the internet, check out reviews and
use online
calculators, but in the end, they look for a
common denominator: specialization.
