Dear
Cooperating Teacher:
May
I express my sincere appreciation for your willingness to
accept the responsibility of cooperating in the University
of Delaware Student Teaching Program. It is hoped that the
information in this letter will be helpful to you as you work
with your student teacher. Your efforts this semester will
have a profound effect upon the education of many children
in years to come.
Each
student teacher should purchase a copy of the Student Teaching
Guidelines, and each cooperating teacher should receive a
copy of this reference from the University supervisor. Please
make use of this reference throughout the student teacher's
stay with you and return it to the University supervisor at
the end of the student teaching experience.
Each
student teacher has been instructed to visit with his/her
cooperating teacher prior to the start of the semester. It
is hoped that this visit will provide you with some insight
into your student teacher's academic and personal data. A
student information form has accompanied each request for
placement made in your district. It is assumed you have this
form; if not, please contact your principal concerning its
location. If the form cannot be located, please call the Office
of Clinical Studies at (302) 831-2319 to request that a duplicate
form be sent to you.
If you
have any questions concerning the administration, supervision
or evaluation of student teachers please contact me immediately.
Again,
thank you for your cooperation and best wishes for a very
rewarding experience.
Sincerely,
Angela
B. Case
Director, Office of Clinical Studies
