"Alternative Math" - The confusing times we live in
Thank you for taking the time to lay this all out and provide links to the curriculum, I appreciate it. As a Canadian abroad, I had heard that some of the requirements were going a bit sideways, and down here in Texas the schools are a bit of a mixed bag as well, but your situation is worse (my wife teaches Algebra and Calculus at the junior high). Just "Wow" ... I have no words. I feel sorry for the poor kids who are smart enough to know the answer in their head, but are forced to spend their progressively fewer hours of free time to figure out this bullshit.
Thanks again.
@drradon: I agree with you 100% on teaching both and teaching basic arithmetic first and then leading on to proper math once that foundation is established.
@dannym3141,
I was first blindsided by it when my kids came home with multiplication homework and were adamant they couldn't answer it the way I was showing them because it would be marked wrong, it was the wrong way to do multiplication.
The link to the full Manitoba math curriculum is below. The worst sections are under 'Mental Math' with the idea being that you should be able to add/subtract/multiply/divide all numbers in your head with a dozen pages worth of tricks. The tricks being what newtboy was calling 'proofs'. Our curriculum calls them 'techniques' though and I've included an example from the Grade 3 curriculum verbatim after of how it is supposed to be 'taught'.
Overall Math curriculum:
http://www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/cur/math/index.html
Grade 3 example:
http://www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/cur/math/support_gr3/number.pdf
From page 56:
Describe a mental mathematics strategy that could be used to determine a given basic fact, such as
-doubles (e.g., for 6 + 8, think 7 + 7)
-doubles plus one (e.g., for 6 + 7, think 6 + 6 + 1)
-doubles take away one (e.g., for 6 + 7, think 7 + 7 – 1)
-doubles plus two (e.g., for 6 + 8, think 6 + 6 + 2)
-doubles take away two (e.g., for 6 + 8, think 8 + 8 – 2)
-making 10 (e.g., for 6 + 8, think 6 + 4 + 4 or 8 + 2 + 4)
-commutative property (e.g., for 3 + 9, think 9 + 3)
-addition to subtraction (e.g., for 13 – 7, think 7 + ? = 13)."
Now before you think me and observe there's nothing wrong with showing kids some extra tricks to help them, that is NOT how this is supposed to be used. If you read further, students are REQUIRED to "explore" multiple methods of calculating answers and must demonstrate they know and can use all these 'tricks'. So instead of providing assistance for difficult calculations as it should be, it's used to make ALL calculations difficult, and create extra work, AND makes kids just learning the concept completely overwhelmed with everything you MUST know to get a right answer to 2+2=4.
And here's the link to the Grade 11 review of the basic arithmetic:
http://www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/cur/math/ess_mm_gr11/full_doc.pdf
And for the Grade 11 students and teaching them to add/subtract/multiply and divide, the teacher's guide describes this like a subjective discovery process with quotes like this:
"Consequently, mental calculation activities should include periods for thought and discussion.
During these periods, the teacher should encourage students to
-suggest a variety of possible solutions to the same problem
-explain the different methods used to come to the correct answer and their
effectiveness
-explain the thought process that led to an incorrect answer"
An important note is we are not talking about solving complex word problems here or anything, but specifically for calculating a basic arithmetic operation with the different methods being those described from back in Grade 3 already outlined above.
Stephen Colbert on Trump's North Dakota Speech
So this was just for Trump? ;-)
Bob, in your world, do children raise their parents?
I have to ask, because you see the world 100% reversed from how most rational people do.
Trump has failed at everything he's tried to do besides install one judge, a "win" handed to him by the 2016 congress blatantly stealing a nomination from the last president, not one he had a thing to do with. I defy you to make a list of 10 actual accomplishments (not just managing the basics) Trump is responsible for since taking office...creating a cabinet (then firing and replacing them) doesn't count, managing to keep minimally short term funding the government doesn't count, not yet being indicted doesn't count, neither does a good golf score. I think it would be easy to give a list of 10 legislative accomplishments by Obama in his first 8 months in office, like them or not.
Perhaps you need to define "way better", because every metric I can apply says he's done way worse, no matter what your politics.
Then you go on to say you aren't a Trump fan (a clear, obvious, provable lie) and that you actually support Cruz, the only politician more despised than Trump, a guy who votes against disaster aid for Americans unless they voted for him.
Just wow, Bob, and I thought you couldn't sink lower. You showed me.
Hate to tell you, but Kid Rock 2020 is actually more likely....and that's terrifying.
Comedy for the intellectually weak .
Trump is doing way better than Obama and is a far better leader than Clinton.
Hate to warn you all Trump 2020
I'm not a Trump fan I am a Cruz fan .

Wow...just wow. How the tune has changed since November.
Dems Double Down On Taking Billionaire Money
Wow...just wow.
You know those are liberal ideals, right?
Corporate personhood is a baby of the right, and was supported by the tea party.
You, sir, are really a progressive liberal. Congratulations!
The "justice democrats" is Unconstitutional in most of its platform. Hence its just a nut job dream. The TEA party desire to follow the Constitution. This in itself would limit government size and hence its corruption.
All corporate money should be taken out of politics. - Or at least cap corporate giving to a small amount say $2500. Some amount equal to what the average person/family could give.
Or better yet I would rather, since government control media via FCC Have media give equal FREE time to each candidate.
