Throughout the school year over 20 student teachers have been working with and learning from the Ramsey staff. The student teachers are seniors at the University and have completed most of their methods classes. One of their first duties is planning and organizing daily lessons. They are also becoming familiar with the characteristics of children at a particular grade level, learning about classroom management, trying different teaching strategies and activities, developing units, and learning to plan on a long term basis. The student teachers have daily feedback from their supervising teachers. During the last few weeks of the experience they are totally responsible for planning and implementing the learning activities in their classroom. Luanne Lemberg, University Coordinator, remarks that the student teachers appreciate the help and support the Ramsey staff offers them. The open-space is exciting to work in because the student teachers can observe and learn from all the teachers in the area. The enthusiasm and new ideas that the student teachers bring to Ramsey are welcomed by the entire staff.
