Praxis 5621 Practice Question
Scenario/Extract:
An art teacher assigned to an elementary school wants to join a professional association to continue learning about teaching, connect with other educators, receive relevant peer-reviewed literature, and attend annual conferences.
Which of the following associations best fits the teache?s needs?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) is specifically focused on the education and development of children from birth through age eight, making it highly relevant for teachers working with young learners.
In contrast, the Association for Middle Level Education (B) targets educators of middle school students, which does not align with the needs of early childhood educators. The Council for Exceptional Children (C) focuses on special education, catering to a niche within the broader educational landscape, and may not address general early childhood education needs. Finally, the National Association for Gifted Children (D) emphasizes gifted education, which is not the primary concern for all early childhood educators.
