Service-Learning in Child Development

Child Development is a service-learning elective in the Family & Consumer Sciences Department in which students serve as teacher assistants in our Cougar Pre-School. Under the direction of a qualified teacher, these trained students conduct a pre-school for three and four year old preschoolers in our community. A strong parental component makes parents true partners in the early education of their children.


Class Objectives
For High School Students

  • To provide students with an opportunity for applying theory learned in the classroom.
  • To train students to use instructional strategies found effective in early childhood education.
  • To make parents partners in their toddler's education, involving them in each stage of the development.

For Preschool Students
  • To provide a developmentally appropriate, hands-on learning environment.
  • A stimulating, secure setting that promotes a love of active learning.
  • A unique program design that promotes social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth.
