About the
Common Core
The Common Core is a set of high quality academic
standards in mathematics and English language arts ELA.
In 2009 the state school chiefs and governors that
comprise CCSSO and the NGA Center coordinated a state-led effort to develop the
Common Core State Standards. Designed through collaboration among teachers,
school chiefs, administrators, and other experts, the standards provide a clear
and consistent framework for educators.
The standards were created to ensure that all students
graduate from high school with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in
college, career, and life, regardless of where they live. The standards define
the knowledge and skills students should gain throughout their K-12 education
in order to graduate high school prepared to succeed in entry-level careers,
introductory academic college courses, and workforce training programs.
Forty-two states, the District of Columbia, four
territories, have voluntarily adopted and are moving forward with the Common
Core.

The GoatOur Best Friend
People say that the dog
is mans best
friend, but goats are also very important. In fact, people have kept goats for
thousands of yearslonger than we have kept dogs.
Goats are useful to us
in many different ways. We can cut the hair from goats and spin it into wool.
We can make clothing from the wool. One kind of wool made from goat hair is
called cashmere. A cashmere sweater can be very expensive.
Goats also give milk,
just like cows do! Did you know that more people around the world drink goats milk than cows milk? Goats milk is easier for babies to
drink. We make delicious cheese, such as feta, from goats milk. Some people put goats milk on their
skin to keep it soft.
In many countries, goats meat is eaten instead of beef or
pork. We also use goatskin to make gloves and boots. Goatskin leather is very
soft.
A female goat is called
a doe or nanny. A male goat is called a buck or billy. A baby goat is called a
kid!
With everything goats
give to us, we can say that goats are our best friends.

The NarwhalA Real-Life Unicorn
We love unicorns, but
they are not real animals. We can find unicorns only in fairy tales.
However, there is a
real-life unicorn here on Earth. It is called a narwhal. A narwhal is not a
horse with a long horn, but a whale!
The narwhal can be found
in the waters around Canada and other northern countries. There are not very
many of them, so if you see one, you are lucky! They can grow to be five metres
long and are blue-grey with white blotches. They are brown when they are born.
Narwhals like to swim with their friends, and talk to one another using sound
waves, like other whales.
All narwhals have two
teeth in their upper jaw, but the male narwhals left tooth starts to grow outwards
after it is one year old. This tooth twists as it grows. It can be up to three
metres long! It is called a tusk. We are not sure what it is used for. Narwhals
are amazing animalsand they are real!
