Thanks to Mr. Matthews and Ms. Agar at Monmouth-Roseville High School for supporting our future teachers! Each student within Professor Aten’s class taught a short strategy to Ms. Agar’s American Literature Period 1 class. They engaged students, organized small group work and led whole-class discussions.

🍎 Growing up in a rural school, I understood the impact teachers have on students and families and wanted to be able to give back to my community!

✏️ My favorite part about my community is the close-knit relationships and connections that create a welcoming and supportive culture that is passionate about agriculture, family and small-town success.

Our MCTE 405/406 students had a great first day of practicum today at Silas Willard Elementary School in Galesburg! Students are working in classrooms, alongside the exceptional faculty of Silas Willard. We are excited for our students to see their content knowledge and classroom learning come to life through application and hands-on learning in the school setting. Let’s go, Scots! ❤️🖤
