I am going to do my final project about my major, Early and Middle Childhood Education. So far, I have taken a lot of classes at Montclair that are required for my major. There are a lot of courses to take, so I know I am going to be in school for awhile. My initial field class gave me the chance to go into an urban and suburban classroom, and observe how the kids learn, and the teachers' learning styles. I can take interviews that I had with the teachers, and my observations to help out with my project. Also, I teach at a dance studio, and I always take pictures and videos of the students during the class. I want to do something creative, so I will use those videos and pictures to create my project. I don't know what style I am going to use to present my project, but I probably will not do a paper. I like how we have the option to be creative and choose what we want to do, so I am going to take advantage of that.
During my research, I want to be able to find out about any subjects at Montclair that I can concentrate in. I know that elementary school teachers usually teach every subject, but I heard that they want to change it, so teachers should be certified in a specific subject. I would like to be a science teacher because that is my favorite subject, I find it interesting, and there is a huge need for science teachers. I have been searching on the Montclair website to find how you can specialize in a certain subject, but I have not found anything yet. I also want to find out more about the special ed. program at Montclair, and change my minor from dance to psychology. I feel that a psychology minor would be more beneficial.
