Ringkasan program

The program is four semesters of course work and field-based experiences in a variety of settings (infant-toddler, pre-kindergarten, and kindergarten-primary). Each fall semester one cohort of 30 students begins two years of study as teacher candidates. During the first semester of the program students take early childhood and literacy methods courses, along with participating in three five-week placements (infant-toddler, pre-kindergarten, and kindergarten-primary) to become familiar with the full range of age levels included in early childhood education. During the next two semesters, students continue their study of helping young children develop their skills in literacy, math, science, social studies, and other aspects of early childhood education. This course work is applied in classrooms, first two mornings per week, then two full days per week. During the final semester, students are in an educational setting for full days, five days a week, gradually taking over full-time responsibility as a teacher.
