Teacher Cadet 1 Honors:
Teacher Cadet 1 is an honors course that engages students to learn about themselves, children of all ages, the teaching profession, and more. While the course focuses on education, you do not need to plan to be a teacher to benefit from this course.
-Students work collaboratively with me to explore concepts in education, culture, and life to develop a better understanding of themselves as learners and as possible teachers.
-This class entails a multiple week field experience in a classroom: typically at Estes, Koontz, Valley Springs, or TCR.
-Teacher Cadets must be responsible, respectful, and willing to engage in self discovery and be an active part of a community of learners.
This course is limited to Juniors, Seniors and by teacher recommendation, Sophomores.
Teacher Cadet 2 Honors:
This course has a prerequisite of Teacher Cadet 1. Students in Teacher Cadet 2 will complete an extended practicum experience in a classroom setting assisting teachers and facilitating student learning.
Please come see me or email me with any questions about the Teacher Cadet program.
