    Description
    Supervised laboratory experience with infants through preschool children in the Solano College Early Learning Center. Students will spend 8 hours in practicum, 1 hour in a teacher meeting, and 1 hour in seminar for a total of 10 hours per week. 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. Child centered, play-oriented approaches to teaching, learning, and assessment; and knowledge of curriculum content areas will be emphasized as student teacher design, implement and evaluate experiences that promote positive development and learning for all young children. During the first week of enrollment, students will be required to be fingerprinted and cleared through Department of Justice and have a negative TB skin test at the District's expense.
