Some advocacy organizations that focus on early childhood are concerned about the content and implementation of the Common Core Standards. Describe three of these concerns

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

Common Core Standards concerns include:
The standards as written focus on only two curriculum areas rather than on all developmental domains including social and emotional and physical development.
Some educators also question whether these standards are appropriate for young children because they are based on expectations for high school graduation that have been traced back to younger learners.
Some educators fear that unrealistic expectations for kindergarten and primary-age children will lead to pressure for academic achievement at the expense of the hands-on experiential learning that is most appropriate for young children.
