Got in trouble at work today over common core.

Really Tnready, not common core since the Tennessee legislature changed the name to squelch the rising tide against common core but changed nothing else. By any other name... I teach math and my students returned from taking part one of the algebra test totally deflated. I told them about the viral common core problem concerning 5 X 3. They also asked how a quadratic could be put into a different form. I told them about vertex form. I have been warned to never do these things again. I thought my job was to teach them. Guess not.
