How Can Common Core Help the Homeschool?
Testing may be bad or it may be good, but ultimately, everyone has to take a test. So how do Common Core State Standards help guide the homeschool? Well, the Common Core State Standards have a scaffolding or building principle. Each grade level has its own set of standards for Math and English/Language Arts. Then the next grade level builds upon the last grade level.
For homeschool teachers, this means following the CCSS(Common Core State Standards) to guide your instructional day. You probably already teach these concepts, but this adds legitimacy to what you teach. And what can be better, when someone from the local school district checks on your child's progress?
Document what and when you teach. Then by following the CCSS, you have your instructional objectives in line with most of the United States!
