Oh, and common core is as far from catering to the LCD as it gets, which it seems you'd appreciate. The kids with the brightest minds will learn faster and be stronger in math. It's funny because it's the way I intuitively did math when I was a kid, which is why I can still do and figure out just about anything mathematically. I wasn't sure how well it would work with the average student, but after watching this school use it several years down the line of implementation, it's outstanding.
