Common Core Is A United Nations Program

[The Irish Ram]

Common core is the dumb-ing down of our children. Not that they had far to go. Class time used to be spent on math and science, history....... Now it is spent on which bands have made it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, or picking which sign suits you best. Here is a 12 year old's test now:

Would you go all the way
Touching below the waist
Touching above the waist
Kissing
Just hand holding
All of the above

In China the kids are learning statistics by calculating how many of our middle school kids want to go all the way............

Imagine a common core test about the Rock hall of fame and how a how far a 12 year old would go on a date. And not only that evidence, but now we now discover how the Chinese kids learn statistics. Wow, do the American people need any more evidence than this?
....
I would imagine some still do.

i can assure you there are no common core standards that require knowledge of the rock and roll hall of fame or that ask how 'far' a middle schooler will go.

anyone telling you otherwise is lying to you.

further, if anything the common core standards are more rigorous than the standards that preceded them

If the UN were in Texas and Bush were the Secretary General of the UN, then Common Core Is A United Nations Program

The far right is amazingly dumb.

If they do need more evidence, there's:

How did the U.S. do?

Students in the United States performed near the middle of the pack. On average 16 other industrialized countries scored above the United States in science, and 23 scored above us in math. The reading scores for the United States had to be tossed due to a printing error.

Experts noted that the United States' scores remained about the same in math between 2003 and 2006, the two most recent years the test — the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) — was given. Meanwhile, many other nations, Estonia and Poland being two, improved their scores and moved past the U.S.

Estonia is smarter than we are...

This is ridiculous.

Agenda 21, also known as “sustainable development,” is the action plan to inventory and control all land, all water, all minerals, all plants, all animals, all construction, all means of production, all information, all energy, and all human beings in the world. This plan was birthed at the 1992 United Nations Rio Earth Summit, officially known as the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED). President George HW Bush signed the United States (US) onto this plan by along with 178 other world leaders. Read all of The Brenner Brief‘s coverage of Agenda 21 here.

Agenda 21 is broken into 8 sections: Agriculture; Biodiversity and Ecosystem Management; Education; Energy and Housing; Population; Public Health; Resources and Recycling; Transportation, Sustainable Economic Development. Agenda 21 is gross overreach of the government and is already affecting Americans lives in all areas even though most don’t just how intrusive and far reaching Agenda 21 has become in America. Another example of this is the intrusion into education in the form of the “Common Core” curricula and standards.

Before explaining Common Core, you must first understand that it is a part of the Agenda 21 program. In the Agenda 21 document chapter 36 is titled “Promoting education, public awareness and training”. This chapter goes on to explain how promoting education, public awareness and training, with focus on environmental education, is a critical theme both relevant to the implementation of the whole of Agenda 21 and indispensable for achieving sustainable development.

Common Core Is Not A United Nations Program. It began in Texas under Governor Bush.

Texas is not a common core state.

Here’s a question that should be asked: Why is it so difficult to kill a bad idea? Answer: Because the United Nations is behind it.

“Common Core was based on a math program that first came out in the ’80s. It failed then and again in the ’90s,” said Meg Norris, an anti-Common Core activist and recently retired public school teacher in Georgia. “The standards were written in three months based on Investigations Math, a curriculum owned by Pearson.”

Jane Robbins, senior fellow at the American Principles Project in Washington, D.C., calls it “recycled failure” and is joining the growing chorus of experts calling for a congressional investigation into how Common Core became a national education policy with the help of billionaire Bill Gates’ money. Gates has spent about $282 million promoting and implementing the program.

If you did not expect to get responses to your post why did you put it on the boards?

To regent: This is a message board not a debate board. I do not post messages to solicit responses from liberals. You have read enough of my posts to know that I prefer that my opposites do not read my messages. I post messages in the hope a conservative will get something from my thoughts and interpretations.

Apparently people want a clue as to your evidence that common core is connected to the UN. Do you have any evidence?

To regent: There is a helluva lot more evidence available than environmental whackos offer in support of global warming. There is so much evidence connecting the UN to Common Core that calling doubters ‘United Nations/Common Core deniers’ is more accurate than ‘Holocaust deniers’ or ‘global warming deniers.’

Irrespective of an individual’s views on God and organized religion one thing is certain, the deniers will always deny facts should one penetrate their mindless defenses:

A ‘core’ tenant of U. N. Agenda 21 is massive depopulation in the name of ‘sustainability’. As students are stripped of their spirit and the possible religious influence of their parents, the concepts of abortion, eugenics and euthanasia will be surreptitiously embedded within the Common Core curriculum to coerce students into accepting these concepts as needed actions to achieve the ultimate goal of sustainability over their God-given and constitutionally guaranteed rights and freedoms. Common Core is about changing children’s attitudes, values and behaviors, advancing a Godless agenda, lacking morals, ethics and principles. There are designs replace churches and synagogues with schools as the focal point of every community. As a result, Common Core, and the entire UNA21, is anti-God, inhumane and anti-human.

Opposition to Common Core becoming cornerstone of many campaigns

Senate, school board hopefuls target reform












Indiana, First State To Back Out Of Common Core





Today Mike Pence, the Governor of Indiana, signed Senate Bill 91 into law; consequently, making Indiana the first state to back off implementing a set of national standards for grade-school education, known as...



From school board races to Senate primaries, the education reform package known as Common Core is proving uncommonly divisive this campaign season, popping up as an issue in primary elections all over the country.

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, a Republican, cites opposition to Common Core as a key reason for her endorsement of state Rep. Chris McDaniel over incumbent Sen. Thad Cochran in Mississippi’s hotly contested Republican Senate primary. Former Oklahoma state House Speaker T.W. Shannon, a Republican, says Obama administration pressure on states to adopt Common Core “is a prime example of why I’m running for the Senate.”

Republican David Brat, the Virginia college professor who rocked the political world last week with his primary victory, went after House Majority Leader Eric Cantor for not fighting hard enough to stop the Common Core reforms.

“I am absolutely opposed to Common Core and top-down education,” Mr. Brat told the conservative website Tavern Keepers days before the primary. “I’m a teacher. I’m in the classroom every day and the teachers, you have to trust your teachers.”

For Maryland Republican Charles “Bud” Nason, the fight to stop Common Core is the centerpiece of his race for a seat on the Carroll County Board of Education. Mr. Nason, one of eight candidates, has teamed up with two fellow challengers, Republicans George Harmening and Jim Roenick, as a bloc committed to rolling back Common Core in the county’s schools.

The national mathematics and English language standards have been adopted by 45 states, although some have rescinded their support and others have delayed implementation.

Like many other activists resisting Common Core, Mr. Nason said the standards are confusing, expensive and, most dangerous of all, an unacceptable infringement on local school district autonomy.

“I think Common Core is even worse than No Child Left Behind,” said Mr. Nason, referring to the George W. Bush administration’s school reform law that even many supporters now concede had to be overhauled.

I don't care who it's from.

the STATES needs to stand up to this Federalized BS they are pumping into common core

Parent's need to wake up and check out what they are doing to your children in the mini-commie camps called, schools

you are incredibly ignorant. the states devised the standard and each one adopted it individually. common core has never been a federal program.

So the states just happened to adopt it individually, all at once. Odd how they all got the same bad idea for the same bad agenda at the same time.

since they developed it together, sure. the standards were commissioned by the national governors association.

maybe not:

Common Core was not developed by the states but rather by the "COMMON CORE REGIME" along with Obama's stimulus $$ and pushed by the duped Republican governors and business groups.

Common Core Is Not A United Nations Program. It began in Texas under Governor Bush.

Texas is not a common core state.

Tx had spent during the design of the CC program on their unique program STAR that it branched from CC, which began under Bush.

Don't try to pretend if you understand the development and design of it.

CC is not a UN program.

 

[regent]

Why do the opponents of common core not want states to come up with ideas on their own or cooperate with other states on ideas? Sounds constitutional, and keeps the federal government out.

JEB Bush of Florida had a lot to do with Common Core. He was given over $500,000.00 to promote it before it was activated. The Bushes may be 'good' people, but they are PROGRESSIVES.

This could be that start of something big if everybody refuses to obey Taqiyya the Liar’s EOs:

On the heels of similar moves by Indiana, Oklahoma, and South Carolina, Jindal acted to make the Bayou State the fourth state to exit the national education standards known as Common Core. Bypassing the legislature and issuing a series of executive orders, the Republican governor pulled Louisiana from Common Core and all federally subsidized standardized tests.

Some educators, however, are challenging the legal groundwork for the governor’s decision. John White, state superintendent of schools, argued that Jindal cannot unilaterally withdraw Louisiana from Common Core. He insisted the state will “continue to implement” the national standards.

Common Core fell off the radar since I first posted this thread. Not to worry. Phyllis Schlafly tells us that Common Core is losing ground:

The highly acclaimed school standards called Common Core are becoming so unpopular that they may soon be politically untouchable. The critics are piling on from Glenn Beck to the Wall Street Journal, with senior academics and activist parents in-between.

In a just world Common Core would be laid on the Democrats in the midterms.

The Common Core History Standards have just become available. Real scholars say they are a "stealthy" plan to teach kids a leftwing curriculum.

XXXXX​

Now Common Core has become such a big issue that it's beginning to bring the politicians into line with what the public is demanding.
