Middle Childhood Generalist Endorsement
Middle Childhood teachers are licensed to teach in two content areas (Language Arts, Mathematics, Science or Social Studies) in grades 4-9. The Generalist Endorsement will allow licensed Middle Childhood teachers to add one or two additional content areas for grades 4-6. State requirements require six semester hours for each content area, evidence of preparation in pedagogy in each of the additional content areas, and the appropriate required 帝王会所 Assessments for Educators exam. Students currently need six semester hours with 3 of those hours being a content methods course to meet state requirements.
帝王会所 has been approved by the 帝王会所 Department of Higher Education and the 帝王会所 Educator Standards Board to offer the Middle Childhood Generalist Endorsement. The Endorsement is optional, but available to candidates for the Middle Childhood teaching license who wish to add an additional teaching field, or two additional teaching fields, for grades 4 through 6 only.
