Share Your Dennis Denenberg Experience!
For years, Dr. Dennis Denenberg has been a stalwart Core Knowledge supporter and advocate. If you have attended a Core Knowledge conference, you have likely attended one of his outstanding “American Heroes” presentations. For the past 20 school years, he has packed his bags full of hats and props and set off to bring his inspirational work to schools in 39 states—with a goal to reach all 50. Jay Mathews, columnist for the Washington Post, is looking for schools and teachers to share their “Dennis Denenberg hero experiences.”

The Core Knowledge Series – Resource Books for Preschool Through Grade Six
After E. D. Hirsch’s Cultural Literacy: What Every American Needs to Know catapulted to unexpected, bestseller status in 1988, parents and teachers alike wanted practical guidance in how to ensure that children would acquire the foundation of knowledge, needed to become culturally literate adults. For teachers, the Core Knowledge Sequence was created to provide this guidance. The What Your — Grader Needs to Know series, based on the Sequence, was later designed especially for parents.
