A BA in Early Childhood and Elementary Education gives you an educational foundation for teaching children aged two to 12.
In a curriculum that combines theory and fieldwork, you’ll have the opportunity to observe experienced teachers and teach classes as a student teacher. You’ll follow a core education curriculum and take electives in the teaching of values, second languages and human, social and natural sciences. You’ll also:
- Examine Canadian social policy and its impact on children and families
- Study the physical, emotional and psychological development of children aged two to 12
- Study educational psychology and philosophy
- Learn methods of teaching first and second languages, mathematics and social sciences
