Can't resist pointing to this tweet from Alex Kontorovich... (@Alex Kontorovich )

Blueprint as reports!

Surely the tweet is meant to be a large part hyperbole, is it still April 1 on Alex's timeline :)? -- most parents can read that graph?! Surely not, they struggle doing their Xth grader's arithmetic problems on average, no? How much has skills-based learning taken hold at this point? At least (again in the US) even though some states have curricula with skills in them none of them gate student progression via the skills right?

I assume the tongue is very firmly in cheek!
I have no knowledge of what school reports are like in the US, maybe it is a simple generalization of what happens? :-)
