I don't have the advanced class at my current location. <br /><br />The other one who comes to mind is a friend's daughter for whom math is her subject of interest and she's not settling for less than 100.<br />(x, why?)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17499160002806879025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28172905.post-63743706746842382812016-06-22T11:48:20.300-04:002016-06-22T11:48:20.300-04:00I think it is totally pathetic that the common cor...I think it is totally pathetic that the common core Geometry regents (June 2016) was so difficult that experienced math teachers are unable to get a 100 on it if they took the exam themselves. This common core crap is killing morale among students. Students who are scoring 90 and above on Regents in every other subject are struggling to get into the 70s on these common core exams.

For instance, two teachers at my school read the first question as a transformation before realizing what was being asked, so it's likely that many of the students made the same mistake.(x, why?)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17499160002806879025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28172905.post-11190844459202685922015-06-04T07:10:56.674-04:002015-06-04T07:10:56.674-04:00Totally fooled me.

What made this exam seem difficult, at least to my English Language Learners, was some of the wording.carlitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10939783225904720955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28172905.post-20413124023441874002015-06-04T01:01:41.301-04:002015-06-04T01:01:41.301-04:00Honestly, this exam wasn't as difficult as I w...Honestly, this exam wasn't as difficult as I was going to expect. Especially since the new Common Core curriculum for geometry has new trig lessons such as Law of Sines/Cosines. Aside from the trickiness and wording for the exam, it was definitely more than doable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
