Students will learn to use knowledge of how young children differ in their development and approaches to learning mathematics in order to provide individually appropriate opportunities for learning the subject. The course will emphasize teaching in the content of mathematics and will focus on the Ohio Mathematics academic content standards and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards. Field experience is integrated with the primary block. This course is part of the first semester senior year internship and culminates in the second semester of student teaching.
