COMMON CORE---What's the big deal?

8/26/2014

Common Core is an integral part of UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development: globalization is the standardization of systems. Whether the system is law enforcement or land use or government, the standardization, harmonization, and integration of all international methods of management is essential for total control.

Education is the flash point for embedding system acceptance in all sectors of the population. Standardized propaganda is developed for pre-kindergarten to post graduate school; this is what is meant by 'Life Long Learning.'

Breaking down traditional methods of learning in order to re-socialize the populace is the goal. Obedient, dependent people who are constantly being propagandized will provide the 'human capital' to fully implement UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development.

Regardless of the content of this nationalized and internationalized system of behavioral modification, the goal and outcome will be to fundamentally destroy the individual's rights.

This is commonly referred to as 'Transformation' or 'Change'.

Thank you so much for all the information on your website.
I am the mother of a 4th grade student at Addison Mizner Elementary School in Boca Raton, FL. Our state recently started this idiotic and logically flawed Common Core way of learning. Of course, we’re having all sorts of issues with math and other academic lessons which make no sense. The teachers hate it too, though they're told not to say anything. The more urgent and alarming problem is the new guidance counselor at the school. I don’t know if this is just taking place at my child’s school or if this is happening state-wide or even nation-wide in Common Core schools.

My child came home one day last spring and said “We don’t have computer class anymore.” This is a class the children attend about once a week as an elective like Art, Music, P.E. My child explained “Instead we have to go to the guidance counselor for that class time and listen to her talk. We played a game and she gave out candy.”
The guidance counselor is handing out assignments to all 3rd-5th grade children on a regular basis. She is also writing her own little propaganda article in the school paper every month. The first assignment was pushing these 8 year old children to start thinking about careers and get on that path now. Also the children had to interview someone about their career and background education. The questions included “What are the classes you took in school that helped you with this career?” and “When you were my age, what did you want to be?” I know one thing for sure, no child dreams of growing up to be a school guidance counselor. In this day and age, successful people can have two or three different careers in a lifetime. When I was a child I was repeatedly told I could be anything I wanted to be.
An eight year old should not be given career pressures. It is a form a child abuse to give adult burdens to children. They’re just little kids! These third graders have very little life experience and it might not be the best time in life to choose a career path and plan your future from age 8! Talk about pressure.

This week, the guidance counselor is teaching them “the character trait of citizenship”. According to this guidance counselor, “a citizen follows the rules” and does what they are told. Sure they are talking about "global citizens". This is not only a waste of time, but it simply makes no sense. Citizenship does not have a “character trait”. The role of citizenship is completely different in other parts of the world compared to the USA because we have the Constitution. I notice they will never teach these kids about the Constitution. Jokingly, I said to another parent that the kids won’t be able to read the U.S. Constitution themselves because they can’t read or write in cursive!

I can’t believe these “educators” will do ANYTHING except teach my child. It's exactly what Charlotte Iserbyt wrote here: http://www.deliberatedumbingdown.com/MomsPDFs/DDDoA.sml.pdf
Are they teaching complex algorithm multiplication/division? No. It looks like they’re doing work all day, but really it is “wheel spinning”. Is my child being taught any of the classics in literature? No. Do they have vocabulary words? No. Is my child being taught spelling? No. Is my child being taught grammar? No. I teach my child all those things at home. Instead of learning the basics, these bright eyed children are sitting in a once a week class with a guidance counselor for brain-washing. It would be great if they could send the mentally disturbed children to the guidance counselor regularly, but why is the entire class doing this?

Throwing more money at this broken educational system will only make it more corrupt and backwards. It takes no money at all for the teacher to use the class time effectively. You don’t need a computer program or more funding or anything other than paper/pencil and a passion for the subject matter. With a paper and pencil I managed to teach my child math skills they refuse to teach in school like algorithm multiplication and division – and it cost $0.

It is my opinion most children with good grades are essentially being home-schooled while also attending public school. The most frequent complaint I hear from other parents “My child isn’t learning anything in school.” and the second most frequent complaint is “I don’t know why they are teaching this strange math, it’s too many steps.”

The next complaint will be “Why is there a ‘guidance counselor class’ for elementary school?” Because no one is asking for their child to be put in this class. It’s not needed!
I can’t understand how the department of education can justify spending tax payer money hiring guidance counselors to give career advice to 8 year old

I forgot to mention this terrible Reading Plus program. My child reads all kinds of books on her own and was above grade level. This Reading Plus computer program will flash a vocabulary word for a fraction of a second on the screen and then give options for the best uses for this word in a sentence. There is no definition given unless the child answers wrong. How is this considered teaching? If the child happens to guess the right sentence to match the vocabulary word, there is no definition given! It’s like an endless placement test; a poorly written placement test. I sit with my child as she does her assignments and I read over her shoulder. There is no benefit for an avid reader who is already getting straight ‘A’s. I truly consider the Reading Plus work to be a pointless waste of time because she is not learning, nor is her reading speed improving. There is another part of this Reading Plus computer program which flashes three letters (not words) for a fraction of a second. Then, the child must type the letters. I watch as my child is tested repeatedly on a number of these drills. They flash letters very quickly, almost too quickly for me to see. My child types the letters “see” and the computer said it’s the wrong answer because it flashed “sce” not “see”. Why not flash whole words instead of three random letters? I know this is not helping my child, and I have doubts this program is helping anyone read at a higher level.
The excerpts she is forced to read (See Reader) range from well written to very poorly written. The non-fiction works are a way of “hiding” other subjects like Science and Social Studies. If my child is reading about science, she is being taught about science – but somehow this is masquerading as a reading assignment. A real example: On Reading plus my daughter read about Crocodiles and was given a comprehension test about them at the end of the lesson. The test was really not about reading/grammar, it was mostly about Crocodile facts. Common Core claims they do not teach Science or Social Studies, but they are giving the children comprehension tests on these subjects hidden as reading work.
There's the not so subtle hidden messages in this Reading Plus program. I’ve noticed all the scientific essays have the theme of “humans are evil and destroying the earth”. There’s also the repeated message about how we need more government control and new laws will be good. I’m not imagining this…
The school did not teach my child to read, I taught my daughter to read before she entered kindergarten. If I relied on the school, my child not be able to read or complete any math.

Check out Robin Eubanks's book Credentialed to Destroy. It all comes together under the umbrella of Agenda 21. I think the fires in California were probably geo-engineered to displace multitudes of people for this sinister agenda. Rosa, did the fires hit the neighborhoods you are fighting for?
