Teaching Opportunity
the course with a "B" grade or higher. The course will focus on
inquiry-based teaching. You will strengthen your oral communication and
organization skills. The course requires that you observe a local elementary
school teacher twice and then teach two science or math lessons. Yes, that's
correct. You are required to be in the elementary school a total of four
times during the semester. We suggest that you allow a 3-hour window to
include travel time, set-up, and wrap-up when teaching the lessons. All of
the schools are on the UM shuttle line. A background check is required.
TLPL 101 meets for one-hour and twenty minutes once a week.
There is no obligation to continue the course sequence once you have taken
TLPL 101.
