Significant Points
  • Public school teachers must have at least a bachelor’s degree, complete an approved teacher education program, and be licensed.
  • Many States offer alternative licensing programs to attract people into teaching, especially for hard-to-fill positions.
  • Excellent job opportunities are expected as a large number of teachers retire over the next 10 years, particularly at the secondary school level; opportunities will vary somewhat by geographic area and subject taught.
Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Teachers act as facilitators or coaches, using interactive discussions and “hands-on” approaches to help students learn and apply concepts in subjects such as science, mathematics, or English. They utilize “props” or “manipulatives” to help children understand abstract concepts, solve problems, and develop critical thought processes. For example, they teach the concepts of numbers or of addition and subtraction by playing board games. As the children get older, the teachers use more sophisticated materials, such as science apparatus, cameras, or computers. To encourage collaboration in solving problems, students are increasingly working in groups to discuss and solve problems together. Preparing students for the future workforce is the major stimulus generating the changes in education. To be prepared, students must be able to interact with others, adapt to new technology, and think through problems logically. Teachers provide the tools and the environment for their students to develop these skills.

Hispanic Preschool Education: An Important Opportunity. ERIC/CUE Digest, Number 113.
Nevertheless, Hispanic parents have been slow to overcome their historical reluctance to turn their young children over to non-family members for care. Nearly half of Hispanic mothers stay at home to raise their children. Even parents who need child care frequently prefer using relatives rather than a preschool, given the size and strength of extended Hispanic families and traditional deep concerns about child safety (Fuller et al., 1994). The educational boost that preschool provides is particularly important for the one-quarter of Hispanic families that are poor by Federal guidelines. While Hispanic families are like others in that they want their children to succeed in school, poverty can seriously impede children's academic success and their parents' ability to actively foster high achievement. This digest describes strategies and programs specially designed to meet the early education needs of Hispanic children, particularly those whose families suffer from poverty. It also reviews efforts to recruit the children; to involve their parents in activities that will enhance their children's learning; and to provide parents with literacy, job, and other skills training, and a range of social services. Hundreds of such programs, developed by community leaders and educators around the country, are now operating.

Christian Preschool Bible Curriculums
It is well know that children thrive when Religion is in their lives. The Preschool years are the perfect time to begin teaching your child about Christianity, God, and the Bible. The best way to do this is to bring Religion into your son or daughters everyday lives. If you are homeschooling or are planning to homeschool your child preschool then why not add Christian Preschool Bible Studies into your teachings as well. There are quite a few ways to do this. Do not "Preach" the Bible to your child... instead teach your child about God and the Bible through many Children's Bible Activities such as: I have listed two Preschool Bible Curriculums that I feel are amazing!! They have everything included to make teaching your Preschool age child the Christian Religion easier on the parent as well as fun for the child. The two Christian Preschool Bible Curriculums below work well when used with the

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. - As schools nationwide contend with an epidemic of obese kids, one preschool has been teaching children as young as 3 to choose fruit and veggies over junk food. Youngsters at the Nutritional Sciences Preschool at Rutgers University - thought to be the country's only preschool with a curriculum focused on nutrition - seem to enjoy both their lessons and the healthy snacks served there. "We love broccoli!" 3-year-old sisters Sara and Molly Balsamo of Milltown told the preschool's director, Harriet Worobey, one day last week. In another class, 5-year-old Justin Najimian of East Brunswick told a visitor everyone should eat lots of bananas and apples, and that his favorite snacks are pretzels and bananas.

Nuturing the Genius Within: Science Activities That Inspire Inquisitive Play
by Suzanne Sherman
A lbert Einstein performed poorly in school as a child, yet he went on to become one of the greatest scientific thinkers of the twentieth century. Einstein had an imaginative intelligence, and his independent and creative approach to the world was driven in part by a love of play. Books with engaging science activities can help foster an interest in science. Because many of the books below contain simple activities and easy-to-obtain materials, they may be used in the classroom, after school, or at home. Many classic activities appear in more than one book. When choosing titles, look for books that have activities of the appropriate length and contain extras such as helpful illustrations or photographs, as well as science content that explains how the activity works.

Rationale for Unit
The decision to teach a unit on magnets at the first grade level is based on National Science Education Standards, Benchmarks for Science Literacy and Illinois State Goals. The National Science Education Standards state that students at the K-2 level will understand that: objects have various observable properties: the position and motion of certain objects can be altered by the pushing and pulling aspects of magnetism; magnets are capable of attracting and repelling each other and certain other kinds of materials. Benchmarks for Science Literacy support the idea of teaching magnets as a force at the K-2 level. It is stated that magnets can make some things move without any physical contact. As a result of this unit, Illinois State Goals will be met. Students will understand and apply the methods of scientific inquiry and technological design to investigate questions, solve problems and analyze claims. They will learn the principles and practices used in scientific research. They will apply the steps and methods learned to conduct practical experiments to explore, validate or refute research questions and hypotheses. In addition, they will utilize the principles of technological design to solve various problems, and use the results gained to assess the credibility of any scientific claims. Magnetism has practical uses in everyday applications. It needs to be learned as a legitimate area of physical science. The fundamental concepts and methods of magnetism will be expanded and explored throughout this unit.

University of California at Berkeley Lawrence Hall of Science
Enhancing Science and Mathematics Education for Child Care Providers and Preschool Teachers
Purpose
Child care providers and teachers of preschoolers often lack background in science, and do not know how to teach it to the children with whom they work. Lawrence Hall of Science staff, building on their own experience in conducting programs for very young children, designed this project for early childhood teachers and day care providers from low income and minority backgrounds. Through three one-credit community college courses and eight Saturday workshops teachers learn how to get their charges actively involved in science and mathematics, and receive guides and materials to use in their teaching. In the process the teachers themselves learn some science and increase their enthusiasm and comfort in teaching it.

The Little Scientists
By Linda Jacobson
Education Week

May 1, 2002 On the snack menu in the afternoon prekindergarten class at Parkland Elementary School is a new item on the market: clear, strawberry-flavored Jell-O with tiny moon and star shapes. The child-friendly product would likely pique the interest of any finicky 4-year-old, but that's not why pre-K teacher Sheryl O'Shea chose it. The jiggly treat is a perfect complement to the students' study of color and light. "It's transparent," says one girl as she looks through the small plastic cup. "No, it's translucent," another corrects. "Why do you say it's translucent?" Ms. O'Shea asks. "Because you can only see through it a little," the child responds. At Parkland, located in the suburban, 14,000- student Greece Central school district just west of this manufacturing city of 230,000 people, even snack time can be used to explore and discuss scientific concepts. "There are a lot of programs that treat science as magic, but that's not what we're doing," says French, who has received National Science Foundation and U.S. Department of Education grants to write and field-test the program. "There are books like '101 Things to Do With Baking Soda,' but no one is explaining what's happening."

Typically, teachers begin lessons through attempting to identify what the students know. In attempting to match background knowledge with lessons, teachers work from their knowledge of the students which may in part rely on assumptions about the students' background knowledge base. When teachers do not share the cultural background of the students, they can find it difficult to bring the students into the lesson. This difficulty may be increased when the students do not share the middle class knowledge base informing the curriculum. This book provides explores ways teachers can further their knowledge of their students to inform their teaching practices. This book consists of eleven chapters written by teachers and researchers describing teaching practices that incorporate the community context in building inclusive learning communities. Unifying the chapters of this book is the use of sociocultural approaches to inform classroom instruction. This use provides guidance to teachers in incorporating the cultures of the students in ways that enable students from minority cultures to succeed. This approach emphasizes valuing the students' cultures through including them in the development of mathematics and scientific activities. The chapters grew out of teacher research with the goal of applying best educational practices to their context. The focus is on the contextualizing of science and mathematics lessons into different communities from the rural poor to the inner city minority neighborhood. Teachers describe what they do to gather the information they need to make the curriculum content more understandable to their students. The research reports include socio economic descriptions of classes and communities, challenges presented by the particular situations, and descriptions of classroom activities that evolved from better understanding of the community and from the instructional conversations engaged in with the students. The classroom practices include innovative activities that create links between informal mathematics and the formal mathematics of the curriculum or of the science of everyday life in relation to the science to be learned in school.
