Community Review for Common Core Standards
My Take
This tool is an essential appl for all teachers implementing the common core in their lessons. It's very easy to use, requires little if no technical skill, and is intuitive. Teachers can select the subject area, then grade level, and peruse the standards. The only thing I could not find were the anchor standards in ELA.
How I Use It
I use this app to confirm that I am reaching core standards in my lesson. I also use it when researching which standards I still need to cover. The ease of use of this tool makes both less of a chore.

CCSS Trivia, Anyone?
Overall I think the app is super useful. I remember recently moderating a panel and whipping out my phone to help further the discourse...

So, I took out my phone and read her a few of the ELA standards. I believe she changed her point of view after hearing the standards. I also think she downloaded the app!

this is good for the teacher's use.
I like the tool for my personal use but not for the students to use because they weren't very interested in it. It good for teachers because the standards are right at you finger tips.
