What degree plan would be the best for me?

Question

I want to teach school. preferably 2nd-4th grade. I don't know if I should go for an Associate of Arts degree, an Associate of Arts in Teaching degree, or an Associate of Science in Education degree.

I know you have to have a Bachelors degree to teach. I just want to know the best way to get started.

Answer 1

If you are wanting to work as an edicational aide while you are working on you bachelors then you can get whichever educational associates degree is most in line with teaching elemntary education.  My suggestion is to skip the associates all together and go straight through Bachelors, if you can afford to do that.  It saves time and money in the long run.
