* "THE CATHOLIC THING" >> COMMON CORE IS NOT CATHOLIC EDUCATION (DAVID G. BONAGURA, JR.) ("...BY ADOPTING COMMON CORE PEDAGOGY, CATHOLIC SCHOOLS HAVE SURRENDERED BOTH THEIR UNIQUE PEDAGOGICAL METHOD AND THEIR VERY IDENTITY. CATHOLIC EDUCATION BEGINS ON THE PREMISE THAT A LOVING, RATIONAL GOD CREATED AN ORDERED AND PURPOSED UNIVERSE THAT POINTS HUMAN BEINGS BACK TO HIM. IN STUDYING CREATION AND ALL ITS FEATURES, INCLUDING HUMAN BEINGS AND THEIR WORKS, WE DISCOVER TRUTHS THAT SHED FURTHER LIGHT ON THE MYSTERY OF GOD, THE ULTIMATE TRUTH...TO DO THIS THE CHURCH HAS ADOPTED THE PEDAGOGICAL APPROACH OF THE ANCIENT GREEKS AND ROMANS KNOWN AS THE LIBERAL ARTS, WHICH PROGRESS IN THREE STAGES - GRAMMAR, LOGIC, AND RHETORIC - ACCORDING TO THE AGE AND ABILITIES OF STUDENTS. THE GRAMMAR STAGE, WHICH LASTS THROUGH ABOUT SIXTH GRADE, LAYS THE FOUNDATIONS THAT ARE NEEDED FOR WHAT EDUCATORS TODAY CALL "HIGHER ORDER THINKING SKILLS" OF LOGIC (CONCEPTUAL THOUGHT AND ANALYSIS) AND RHETORIC (ABSTRACT THOUGHT AND SYNTHESIS). THIS TRIVIUM MODEL IS TIMELESS BECAUSE IT CORRESPONDS TO THE NATURAL INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE HUMAN PERSON...COMMON CORE FORCES CATHOLIC EDUCATORS TO SKIP THE GRAMMAR STAGE AND JUMP RIGHT TO LOGIC AND RHETORIC, BEGINNING EVEN IN THE PRIMARY GRADES. UNDER COMMON CORE, CHILDREN WILL NOT ABSORB AND MEMORIZE THE BASIC COMPONENTS OF LEARNING - WHICH IS WHY IN A FEW SHORT YEARS COMMON CORE WILL FAIL AND GO THE WAY OF WHOLE LANGUAGE AND THE DOZENS OF OTHER SIMILAR EDUCATIONAL FADS PROFFERED OVER THE LAST SEVERAL DECADES...")
