NEW YORK – Aside from forcing every child to be educated by the same standards, it looks like Common Core lesson plans also teach children some scary concepts about the Constitution.

Breitbart.com reports:

A sample Common Core lesson plan for 8th graders, provided by a nonprofit group founded by the three lead writers of the Common Core standards, teaches that the U.S. Constitution is an “evolving” document and that the nation’s founders only considered white males with property as persons under the law.

Student Achievement Partners, founded by Common Core “architect” David Coleman – now College Board president – and lead writers of the standards Jason Zimba and Susan Pimentel, provide the classroom resource. The education group received $6.5 million from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the main source of private funding for the Common Core, and is focused solely on implementation of the Common Core standards.

As CNS News notes, the lesson plan is based on ‘Words We Live By: Your Annotated Guide to the Constitution’ by Linda R. Monk, which is listed as a suggested reading for 8th graders on page 95 of the Common Core Standards

The lesson plan instructs teachers “to reinforce the concept that the U.S. Constitution is a living document” and recommends that “students could investigate an area of debate where the interpretation of an Amendment or amending the Constitution is central to the argument and then debate it in class.” Student Achievement Partners suggests possible areas of debate in which interpretation of an Amendment or actually amending the Constitution are considered are “gun control, balancing the federal budget, gay marriage, or even the legality of selling alcohol.”

The recommended Common Core lesson plan presumes as fact that the Constitution is a “living document,” or one that can be interpreted differently from what was intended by the founders.

The Founding Fathers knew our nation would evolve, but they also provided ways to accommodate change through the amendment process and Constitutional Conventions. Those processes are difficult to accomplish for a reason. We shouldn’t allow Bill Gates, David Coleman, and other Common Core advocates to teach our children that the Constitution is something other than what our Founders intended it to be.
