Grade Levels

4-6

Encourage your students to think like scientists and build their critical thinking skills with the Claims-Evidence-Reasoning (CER) model. Support your students in developing conclusions based on reliable and valid evidence, and help them use this model to construct scientific explanations. You'll participate in an interactive Gizmos activity to learn practical strategies for bringing the CER model to life in your classroom. You'll also walk away with lesson resources, CER templates, and ideas for applying this approach in other subject areas. This session is a great next step for exploring new ways to use online simulations to support student learning. Alberta Education provides K-6 teachers with access to Gizmos.
