Getting Back At It!

School is right around the corner for me (about a week) and my family and I are taking one last trip together to SC-Myrtle Beach to be exact! I am super excited to spend time together before the grind again. With that said I have been thinking a lot about the new COMMON CORE! Um, anyone else nervous about it? 

I am on my districts L.A. committee and we have been trying to align our standard based report card to them, lets just say it was A LOT of work! Now that it is "kinda" aligned I'm not sure where to start in regards to teaching it all! :) We have Scott Foresman as our reading series and I like it, but should we be using more specific texts? Anyone else having the anxiety that I am?
