Presentation transcript:

Major Academic Plan (MAP) Why study elementary education? Teaching is an enormously challenging and rewarding profession. Every teacher must use his or her knowledge of the subject matter, instructional strategies, and interpersonal skills to provide learning experiences for every student in the classroom. Today's successful teacher knows how to support each child's learning, attend to socio-economic and developmental differences among students, and show evidence of students' struggles and successes as they learn. Completion of this program satisfies the State of Washington endorsement for teaching kindergarten through grade 8. Field Experiences The purpose of field experiences is to provide the teacher candidate with direct teaching/learning experience in a school setting. The candidate has the opportunity during this time to observe teachers, plan lessons, and teach under the guidance of cooperating teachers. Student teaching is the culminating field experience when the candidate co-teaches full-time for the entire quarter. WEST-B/WEST-E The State of Washington requires all candidates to take and pass the Washington Educator’s Skills Test. The WEST-B, which tests basic reading, writing, and math skills, is required before admission to the Teacher Education Program. Satisfactory SAT or ACT scores may waive all or part of the WEST-B test. The WEST-E is taken for each endorsement area prior to certification.
