As a teenager, I was not very happy with the common core. It meant that I had to think harder and be less lazy. At first, it really sucked! Then I realized that in this year alone, I have learned more working on the common core standards than I have working out of a textbook for 3 years.
Now, people Re trying to shoot it down. I am a twelve year old girl who has straight A's and I say keep the common core!
