Gearing Up for Back to School? Part II

As we continue to gear up for the start of the school year CLI would like to share reflections from CLI Model Classroom teachers about the impact they had on their students. We are excited to continue our work this year by building on the strengths of teachers to create sustainable change.  

“Having never taught Pre-K before, I was very concerned about what to teach and how to teach it to four year olds. CLI was the answer to my prayers. The program was explicit, extensive, and most of all, so very effective. My students were all like sponges as we read interesting read- alouds, met new vocabulary, and word wall words. I had taught kindergarten for nine years previously to teaching Pre-K this year. I was so impressed and proud of all that my students learned this year using CLI.”
