20 Hour Observation Confirmation

KEAN UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF EDUCATION
UNION, NJ 07083

Dear Cooperating Teacher:

Thank you for agreeing to cooperate with the Early Childhood and Family Studies Department of Kean University in providing a preprofessional development experience for one of our students. During this time, the student should have the opportunity to observe twenty (20) hours in your classroom. This will provide a beginning experience in which he/she may apply understandings of the teaching/learning process for young children.

We feel fortunate to have schools and master teachers, such as yourself, willing to serve as a part of this professional team. Thank you for making your classroom available to an early childhood student for observation, hands-on experiences and professional supervision.

Please respond to the following:
