In early January, I brought in the paperwork needed to have my transcripts evaluated for what I'd need to get into the Masters of Arts in Teaching program in either middle grades education or art education. This past Saturday, I received the response in the mail.
For middle grades education (grades 4-8), I need two concentrations. I was originally thinking language arts and math. But then I saw I only need two classes (undergraduate) to complete requirements for social studies- US and Georgia History. Sounds easy enough. If I get a full-time job, I can take those classes part-time. So maybe I'll do social studies, not language arts. But then...then to get a concentration in math, I need 5 math courses. Science or language arts? 4 courses. So I think that no matter what, I'll probably be going to school full-time during the summer.
Art education, I'm even further behind than I would be in middle grades education. I would need a total of nine courses. That's a full year, if I go to school full-time. I don't think I'll do art education...
Kerry and I talked about it. No matter what, I'm going to start those undergraduate prerequisite courses spring semester 2010. I'll have in-state residency for a year (in state tuition), and our wedding and honeymoon will be over.
Next blog post- the awesome job lead Kerry got me
