We've always maintained that it's important to become informed about both sides of the CCSS debate. However, more often than not, it's the work of CCSS critics that gets the most attention. Still believe we need to think about all sides, but definitely need more published by educators who feel the Common Core may be a good thing...like this post.

This piece from Thomas Newkirk definitely fits into the category of "Common Sense for the Common Core." It lays out several concerns with the CCSS in a logical fashion. Whether you're a CCSS supporter or feel the standards are ripe with imperfections (or somewhere in between), this is a good read.

This article goes in depth to examine what the CCSS and the Transcontinental Railroad have in common. There's more to it that you might think. This is a lengthy piece (5 pages) but worth the read if you are still trying to understand how to wrap your head around all the changes that come along with the CCSS.

There's a lot of criticism out there about the CCSS. And while it's important to read opinions from all sides, it can be hard to find teachers writing about their positive stance about the new standards. This post, as a result, is refreshing and uplifting. And also, it might shift your thinking a little if you're a member of the anti-CCSS camp.

This is a weighty, but much needed, read. It's the mathematical standards of practice that truly need to be understood in order to fully make a CCSS transition. If you're a math teacher of any level, you've got to explore them, and this article unpacks them in a valuable way.

One of my beliefs about the CCSS is that teachers of ELA are going to have to look to more non-traditional sources for texts. Magazines, videos, and newspapers can play a great role in the teaching of informational text.
