One size doesn't fit all is what I believe Common Core math is attempting. The part that it misses is that a student should probably be fine demonstrating one modality instead of having to demonstrate them all

I cannot overstate enough how consistently and extremely this has turned my kids off from math. 3-for-3 on absolutely hating this. Having to solve the same thing five different ways just pisses them off, and, like... yeah, of course it does. They want to finish the work and go play and it feels like you're just fucking with them and disrespecting their time by making them solve the same problem several times, even if that's not the intent.
