Heart = ESSENTIAL
Leg = Not essential to life
“What you will find is that a good set of Essential Standards will cover about 88% of the items on the state test, but not 100%. If you go after the extra 12%, you will have to cover many more standards and hence have less teaching time to thoroughly teach each of the essential standards.
