Well, that's interesting... our school always links any curriculum changes to Common Core. This includes some of their ridiculous changes like requiring essays in PE. "All classes require writing now, because of Common Core."...is what they tell parents. Not good for my son who does not like to write. Give the poor kid a break from writing in PE!!

My son is not a good speller, but he is very good at sorting the words into categories. I wonder if this will help his spelling.
