How We Prepare You
You will learn from caring, expert education faculty and gain valuable firsthand experience in area schools, helping you develop professionally and personally to make a difference in the classroom, your community, and beyond.
The middle childhood licensure program develops expertise in working with children in grades four through nine. In addition to a substantive background in the liberal arts and humanities through the university core, the program prepares middle child educators in two of four content areas: language arts/reading, math, science, and social studies.
You’ll gain teaching, theoretical, and practical knowledge and experiences in understanding the nature and learning styles of young adolescents and the middle school environment. Candidates in the program also benefit from multiple experiences in the planning of appropriate lessons for specific subject areas and for interdisciplinary lessons.
