Common Core: Messing with our kids mental health...

Common Core math education intentionally designed to make America's children mentally ill

by Mike Adams


If you look around America today, mathematical mental illness is found everywhere. It's found in the federal budget, where numbers only mean what we are told they mean, not what they really mean. Mental illness is also found in medicine, where mentally ill victims of mercury in vaccines viciously attack parents who seek to protect their children from those very same vaccines. It's also found in the new "Common Core" curriculum, spearheaded by the federal government, which seems intentionally designed to make children mentally ill and as confused as possible.

Case in point: See this homework assignment from an elementary school in New York. The "mathematics" exercise instructs children to "Draw the cubes you colored in the number bond" and then "Show the hidden partners on your fingers to an adult."

The final instruction asks students to "Color the fingers you showed."

I do PhD-level work in analytical chemistry and code complex relational databases, yes despite my best efforts to grasp this Common Core exercise, I have no idea what on Earth this lesson is attempting to teach.

Here's the homework assignment. See if you can figure it out:

  1. I would leave it blank. The worksheet doesn't have any cubes only squares so per the directions you have nothing to color, and since you do not have any cubes to color you also do not have to draw the cubes within the number bond. As for the the hidden partners on my fingers they are so well hidden that I can not find them to show anyone thus I do not have to color in any of the fingers on the worksheet.
