  Case: Parents Against Common Core
Parents are often close minded about anything related to Common Core. At this point, I believe it is more of a political stance, than a true disconnect in understanding. Parents automatically shut down, and allow for their children to do so as well when instruction is not "the old fashioned way". What are so tips on opening parents up to new ways of thinking?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Since Common Core is what we are required to teach, I would focus on the positives of Common Core when speaking with parents. One of the things I tell my parents is that common core focuses on the "why" or "how" did you get your answer. We want students to get the right answer, but we also want them to be able to explain how they got the answer and why their answer makes sense. T
