questions! While the Common Core couldn’t be clearer about what to teach, they never
quite tackle how to teach. That’s what makes Inquiring into the Common Core such an
essential resource. It offers teachers an inquiry-based professional development model
for achieving greater understanding of the standards themselves, then determining best
ways to realize desired outcomes.
