Description
This full-semester ???apprenticeship??? field experience provides the teacher candidate continued opportunity to apply course content in a grade 1-6 classroom and to reflect on the teaching profession as an active participant. A mentor teacher and Teacher Ed. field supervisor provide guidance during this learning experience. The teacher candidate will be challenged to develop ways of articulating subject area knowledge, to collaborate with colleagues and parents, and to apply understanding of students as individuals with social, emotional, physical, and intellectual needs. The teacher candidate will be expected to engage in daily classroom activities and will work with students in small group and large group settings during this Level II field experience. (This lab is completed during the semester immediately preceding student teaching.) (Pre-requisite: EDU 348, concurrent with Teacher Ed. methods courses) (Fall, Spring)
