KCFR (my local NPR station) had the person in charge of Colorado’s state curriculum on this morning, to talk about what has changed in the new state standards.

The whole interview was a gem (I can’t seem to find it online though), but the definite highlight came when the standard-maker gave an example of what a new 4th grade math standard would look like:

“The new standards are very specific. One example might be that a fourth grader needs to know the difference between the denominator of a fraction, and the nominator.”
