EDU 113Teaching Infants3
and Toddlers This course focuses on the principles and prac- tices essential for designing and implementing high-quality programs for infants and toddlers. Students will explore developmental milestones across all domains—cognitive, social, emotional, and physical—during these early years, and learn to apply this knowledge to create developmentally appropriate and responsive activities. Emphasis will be placed on planning relationship-based, play-cen- tered curricula that support individual learning trajectories and needs. Students will also develop skills in observation and assessment techniques to monitor and support infant and toddler development. Additionally, the course will explore the importance of collaborative partnerships with families, colleagues, and com- munities, and the role these partnerships play in fostering positive developmental outcomes. Ethical considerations and professional responsibilities in infant and toddler care will also be examined, en- suring that students understand the importance of advocacy and professional conduct in early child- hood education.

EDU 209Math Methods PreK-4th3
This course focuses on learning theories and teaching strategies for early childhood mathematics. Class sessions will be interac- tive and will include a variety of hands-on experiences with concrete and virtual manipulatives appropriate for elementary school mathematics. We will explore the teaching of mathematics, investigating both what to teach and how to teach it. It is based on the ideas, goals, and recommenda- tions of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), namely that all chil- dren can and do enjoy mathematics, that children learn best by actively exploring and investigating math, and that problem solving, reasoning, and communication are important goals of mathematics teaching and learning. We will be studying the process and content strands and the interre- lationships between the strands. Students will work with manipulatives and technolo- gies to explore mathematics, solve prob- lems, and learn ways to teach mathematics content to children.
