### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great to use to write your own curriculum with rigor!
  

*by K***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 16, 2022*

I bought this to be able to use to write my curriculum that would allow cross-curricular ideas in the lessons. I love it so much because it had everything I used, and it was all in one organized place. I shared it with all new teachers in my building and wondered why they are giving them out to teachers as a gift for passing the state teaching tests or new school hires!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Finally the art Dept.isn't left out in the cold!
  

*by L***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 19, 2013*

Our district adopted the CCS last year.  While non-core subjects like mine (Art) were expected to implement them, nobody could say just HOW TO DO THIS!  During training our instructors would ask "...what do you think the standards mean and how will you apply them in your classroom?  WELL, have you seen the list of these standards?!  Slogging through all of that and dealing with our own standards at the same time about put me over the edge.  I eventually grasped a better understanding, but wish I had this book LAST YEAR!  This book puts all of the academic verbosity into perspective and lays it out in terms that even an oldish teacher like me can understand and incorporate. It also has great sections of academic vocab aligned to the standard and practical ways to implement them plus- BONUS TIME a monthly planner so you can prove to the world just how CCS savvy you are!  I recommend it to any teacher who is tired of hearing gobbledy gook and needs some straightforward useful answers about the COMMON CORE. Anyway, I have to go.  I am PROCRASTINATING writing my CCS lesson plan.

    This book adds nothing new
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 17, 2022*

I bought this to unpack the standards. I taught 4th ELA and moved to 6th. I hoped this would be a good starting point. Instead, it was word salad.
