  5. What Courses Should I Take and When? • You must take your Block 1 courses first! Pay close attention to what you can take with Block 1 & what you’re allowed to take after you complete Block 1 classes. • In addition to Block 1 courses, you should take at least one of your Upper Level Requirement courses if you have not completed them already. Try to get those done as soon as possible. • I would advise taking ENGL 3430 (Professional Writing), SCIE 3320 (Physical Science), and the 2 Math Courses to get those out of the way.

  6. What Classes Should I Take Together? • When registering for classes, take the time and read the course descriptions. • Everyone is eager to finish up Block 1 classes and be one step closer to student teaching, but, registering for classes without knowing what the requirements for each class are could result in A LOT of work in the course that maybe you’re not prepared for.

  7. What Classes Should I Take Together cont. • Consider taking a LITY course with a CUIN, ANTH, SPED, and MATH course. • For example: LITY 3320 (Foundations of Literacy) CUIN 3324 (Classroom management) ANTH 3311 (Anthropology) SPED 3321 (Exceptional Children) MATH 3318 (Concepts in Math I)

  8. What Courses Should I Keep Separate? • Don’t take your CUIN science, math, or history classes together! • Your higher level (junior/senior) classes require more time and dedication and it may get overwhelming at times. • After Block 1 you don’t have to take your classes in order. When taking CUIN 4316, CUIN 4322, and CUIN 4324 register for a class that may not require as many projects, tests, or group work to balance everything out.

  9. What About Minimesters and Summer School? • YES! YES! YES! • If any course offers a minimester, register for it! • A minimester is fast paced three week course but that’s just one more class you have out of the way! • Summer school courses are two days a week if they’re face to face, that last up to 4 hours depending on the class. • I recommend taking one summer school class per summer session if you’re able to do a minimester. If not, take up to 3 summer classes. One online and two face to face but don’t overdo it!
