No one should forget that Gates spent 1 billion of his own money to promote Common Core. I never understood why he did it or how he got away with it, but this was an awful lot of money to spend on things that were the intellectual descendants of New Math and Everyday Math. So now what? He didn't do enough damage? He wants another try.
Love this piece, Sam!
Wonderful thinking, Sam. We need folks like Jim Bailey to help us remember to protect childhood. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this article! I love the connections to the work of Angelo Patri. It is critical that we get this message out to everyone
Lovely ideas all, thanks for weaving them!!
