I have had it. I am at my breaking point. The so-called “math curriculum” called Everyday Math is the suckiest piece of crap worst program I have ever seen! I am currently (started today, lol) doing research for an article I intend to send to every newspaper across the country that will print it. If your child is exposed to this torture on a daily basis and you have an opinion about it that you don’t mind me quoting you on I want to hear it!
I feel so bad for my poor daughter who gets so frustrated trying to understand her homework she is in tears and it takes 2 hours. 2 FREAKING HOURS!!!! For 1 piece of paper! I have been complaining about this program for over a year now, trying to decide what kind of action I can take, and rallying supporters. My action is to expose this trash they are teaching our children to the public. If the school districts won’t listen to us as a single unit, maybe they will listen with a little public humiliation!

What’s up with the math curriculums ? I think almost everyone of my friends who has school age children complains about it. My husband’s boss who has a masters in math had to attend a special workshop for something called New Math given by his kids school because he couldn’t figure it out.
