Degree Audit Sheets
Early Childhood Education
The Michigan Department of Education is moving to a new teacher certification structure based on grade bands. LSSU offers two options in the birth-kindergarten grade band. The degree audit below is the path to teacher certification to teach kindergarten as well as children in early childhood educational settings prior to attending kindergarten.
If someone does not want to pursue certification to teach kindergarten, but only wants to teach pre-kindergarten students, the above degree audit can be done without TEAC 480 and TEAC 492, which are the kindergarten student teaching courses in the degree that are needed to be a certified kindergarten teacher.
The following two programs are in the teach out phase as the new birth-kindergarten degree is phased in.
Elementary Education
The Michigan Department of Education has designed a new teacher certification structure based on grade bands. The grade bands that include elementary grades are: birth through kindergarten, pre-kindergarten through third grade, and third grade through sixth grade. LSSU students can earn a degree with one or more grade bands.
