In this program, you will learn to teach these subject areas to diverse children in kindergarten through eighth grade. You will gain on-the job skills with three practicum experiences in elementary classrooms and one semester of full-time student teaching under the supervision of experienced teachers. Teacher certification, a requirement for teaching in a public school, varies from state to state.
