Common Core is the worst thing to happen to the K-12 public education system since teachers unionized.

The ineptitude and indoctrination uncovered this year as school boards and parents across the nation really learned the details of this federal curriculum are jaw-dropping.

Without further ado, The College Fix presents the top five worst Common Core lesson plans exposed this year:
