Students will assume increasing responsibility for teaching and classroom management throughout the semester by planning activities across the curriculum. Weekly seminars are scheduled to discuss issues of appropriate practice, discipline, lesson plans, observations, and other concerns.

Students will need to have Practicum experience with two different age groups (e.g., infant/toddler, preschool, and primary aged children.) during their senior year.
