Au contraire, the common core does contain some specifics (and a concern is that this may grow in the future as CCSS is still being developed). While there are indeed lists of standards, there are also tasks and books and their recommended placement by grade level / band.

Can you provide a quote or specific link on this? I don't recall seeing any required curriculum when I read through the common core standards.
