Testimonials
My 6th Grade students shared their strategies after working on an Exemplars task today. It was amazing to see the different strategies that I would never even think of doing! Their discussions were so rich and made my teacher heart so happy. Exemplars really helps boost student confidence levels as well! So awesome!
Jay [the instructor] is wonderful, he provides detailed information to help us bring into our class and also gives us time to work as students to understand how they should work through the problems. I have truly benefited from this series especially since math is not my strong field, it has given me strategies and helpful hints to help the students become better math students.
