“I have learned so much from this experience. There is so much growth when you come in not knowing anything about CER, multimodal text sets etc., and now can talk confidently about it and how it’s being used in the classroom.”

“This program has been such a positive influence on my teaching approach. I feel more confident, and my students have been more engaged in their learning.”

“I truly enjoyed collaborating with other teachers. Discussions with fellow educators and learning new scaffolds were incredibly rewarding!”

“All aspects of today’s session were helpful to me and my further understanding of multimodal text sets. I especially loved the slow-reveal box plot activity – it was super engaging!”

“I loved diving into individual student pre-/post-SBA responses. Seeing the progress in their arguments was so rewarding!”

“I am absolutely loving this week. I have gotten so many ideas for implementing CER in my classroom this year. I feel like I have an even better grasp on creating a multimodal text set/CER lesson plan. It seems easier this year to be creative.”
