    Description
    In this course, students will demonstrate developmentally appropriate early childhood program planning and teaching skills under the supervision of ECE/CD faculty and other qualified early education professionals. Students will utilize practical classroom experiences to make connections between theory and practice, develop professional behaviors, and build a comprehensive understanding of children and families. Reflective practice will be emphasized as student teachers design, implement, and evaluate approaches, strategies, and techniques that promote development and learning through child-centered play-oriented experiences. This course includes exploration of career pathways, professional development, and teacher responsibilities. Students are required to observe children in a group setting. (A, CSU)
