Common Core: 3 * 4 = 11 is okay
Published on Jul 19, 2013
Video of Amanda August, Grayslake D46 Curriculum Director explaining the focus of Common Core Math:
Video Segment Transcript:
Amanda August: "But even under the new common core if even if they said 3 * 4 was 11, if they were able to explain their reasoning and explain how they came up with their answer. Really in words and oral explanation and they showed it in a picture but they just got the final answer wrong. We're more focused on the how and the why."
Parent: "Will we be correcting them?"
Amanda August: "Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. We want our students to compute correctly. But the emphasis is moving more to the explanation, and the how, and the why, and can I really talk through the procedures that I went through to get at this answer -- and not just knowing its 12, but why its 12. But the emphasis is really moving on toward the explanation and the how and the why and can I really talk through the procedures that I went through to get the answer."
