Field Placement

I have recently begun my field placement for the year in a kindergarten classroom. For those of you who do not know, a field placement is time that MSU students in the college of education spend in a classroom every week. The purpose of our field placements is it give us hands on experience and to help us become better teachers. This semester I will be giving two full lessons, one in science and one in social studies. Each lesson will consist of two 30 minute parts and will span over two days. I will also be acting as an aid in the classroom, helping with day to day activities, working with students, and helping with behind the scene activities like paperwork and meetings. I am extremely excited to get involved with this classroom, and I am also happy that I will be there for the entire year instead of only one semester!
