"I Can Do It"
Beginning Teacher Assistance Program
Teacher certification in Missouri requires participation in a Beginning Teacher Assistance Program. MNEA and Maryville University have teamed up to offer a meaningful and convenient way for beginning teachers to receive a certificate verifying completion of this requirement. Attendees will also become a part of the Missouri NEA Beginning Teacher Network.
The beginning teacher assistance program focuses on "I CAN DO IT," a classroom management program. Other topics include creating a professional teaching and learning plan and maneuvering the certification maze. Activities in this workshop focus on how to:
- have a smoothly flowing classroom,
- use effective rules/routines,
- deal with difficult behavior,
- build a classroom community, and
- improve home/school communication.
Attending this program fulfills the initial certificate and PC-I requirement for "participating in a beginning-teacher assistance program sponsored by a college or university." You must currently be teaching to attend this program. This session is not recommended for college students.
There is a non-refundable registration fee of $25 (MNEA members) or $50 (non-members). Space is limited. Register now to get your choice of locations. Contact MNEA Teaching & Learning at (800) 392-0236 or e-mail Becky Stewart (becky.stewart@mnea.org) for more information.
