Subject: $150 to Try Teaching!  Do you have a passion for math or science?

Description:
Here’s an opportunity for you to receive an introduction to teaching as a
career and receive a $150.00 scholarship if you complete the course with a B
or better.

Inspire the next generation of scientists and mathematicians!  TLPL 101 (1
credit) will focus on inquiry-based teaching in an elementary school.  You
will have the opportunity to strengthen your oral communication and
organization skills.  The course requires that you observe a local elementary
school teacher twice and then teach two science or math lessons.  Yes, that's
correct.  You are required to be in the elementary school ONLY four times
during the semester.  You should allow a 3-hour window to include travel
time, set-up, and wrap-up when teaching the lessons.  All of the schools are
on the UM shuttle line.  A background check is required.  TLPL 101 meets for
one-hour and twenty minutes once a week.  Give it a try, you may like it!
