It really depends on the district. Yes, some schools in Texas will just want you to get certified, you can really have any degree. Some schools will want specific majors.
I'm looking to apply to schools for fall because I'm graduating in May. And a lot of them make you promise to get your masters in 6 years. It depends on the principle and district policy.
My advice if you want to really be marketable is to get certified in art! There are books available to study but honestly if you've taken studio art classes most of the questions shouldn't be too difficult I'd brush up on classroom management and logistic material. This is the book I used for the Texas certification.

ALSO. GET ESL CERTIFIED. most districts require it here in Texas!! There's a test just like for art!! It wasn't required to be taken for my major but I wish it was because it's super important if you want to get hired. So I'm studying and going to take it!
Best of luck!!
If you want students to reflect on their own art making process and experience, then I would suggest looking at what people are doing with choice-based art education or Teaching for Artistic Behaviors (TAB) since they tend to concentrate of idea development and reflection. You can probably find a lot of handouts specifically for the 8 Studio Habits of Mind which TAB tends to structure around.
Here are some resources: Book on choice-based education, Studio Thinking 2 which covers the 8 studio habits, and TAB yahoo group which has a very supportive community.
Remember that literacy development involves four domains: listening and reading which are input based, and writing and speaking which are output based. Equal attention should be given to each domain, because without one, you can't have the other. Believe in the arts ability to support development in all fields, but don't let other subjects take away the qualities that make art wonderful.
Good luck!
Side note: Why not collaborate with their English teacher and have the students develop a story in their class, and then you can open up a variety of mediums and techniques so the students can visualize their narrative? Just an idea...
It's going to be difficult your first year. But go with the flow. Don't compare yourself to Instagram teachers or try to achieve perfection right away. It takes time. I didn't feel like I know what I was doing until about year 4-5. I would sometimes have to adapt my lessons to make them easier for some of my middle school students because they never had an art class in elementary so don't think you're not doing great just because the work doesn't look like it should be posted on Pinterest.
Classroom management is one of the more difficult things to master but again....it just takes time and a willingness to adapt to the culture of your class/school/community. A book I always read over the summer before starting school again is Classroom Management for Art, Music, and PE by Michael Linsen (I'll link it below).
Start with the basics, the elements, and treat them like ingredients to a recipe. Try and connect your lessons to what the kids are into or what they're experiencing in the other classes. You got this! And don't EVER be afraid to ask a veteran teacher for help/mentorship. Even if they're not teaching art you can learn a lot from core classes and can adapt them to your classroom. Everyone was a first year teacher at some point.
YOU GOT THIS!!!!
the book I mentioned before ( Classroom Management for Art, Music, and PE Teachers https://www.amazon.com/dp/0615993265/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_fPGkDb3RMTHRC)
MA in Photo History and BFA in Studio Photography here. If I was teaching beginning photography, these would be the books I would use to illustrate the history, theory, and techniques behind photography:
The two theory texts (Sontag and Barthes) are collegiate level so I would introduce them lightly - maybe use a section out of both to structure a project around. If you want to PM me I can email you a syllabus I created for when I taught 6 week adult course at a community studio. This will give basic gist of how it can be structured and what you will need supply-wise. Also- if you want - I'd be happy to review any syllabus you make.
People swear by The Annotated Mona Lisa for art history. I'll say in my experience, there are obvious ones and there are ones you couldn't have prepared for. I still remember there was a question on an obscure artist that threw me for a loop. But you gotta do your best to use what you know to BS an answer. I threw as many details about that general area of the world to come up with an answer. Good Luck!
I think, in general, art education has moved away from materials/technique based education and more into developing 'enduring understandings' about art. As with most content areas right now, there is a focus on the common skills and artistic habits that your students need to develop. I would start by reviewing the National Core Arts Standards, and reading studio thinking.
Also, I personally believe it is very important to incorporate contemporary artists, and artworks that reflect issues which may of be of interest to the students you serve. The Art21 website is a great resource for this.
UHU Tac https://www.amazon.com/removable-reusable-objects-surfaces-99683/dp/B0000AQODM aka poster tac, will stick reasonably light stuff to textured walls and let them come off again pretty well.
you might know it as the white stuff that comes with glow in the dark stars.
This will be a great resource for you: https://www.amazon.com/Instructional-Routines-Literacy-Teaching-Strategies/dp/0133347966
Research reciprocal teaching, conversation round tables, and collaborative conversations to start with. Literacy isn’t always reading and writing, there are common core literacy standards that involve public speaking and conversation.
Sure---here's a link to buy the book:

My school library and local public library has dozens of books and I copied pages. There's also a blogger I found on Pinterest who does nice 'step by step, how to draw a ____' style posts. I print 4 copies (4 students sit at each table) and put the copies in a plastic protector and they rotate around the room and change every 8 art classes. Some of them build off others. I found one book on how to draw The Simpson's characters, so one Warm Up might show how to draw Lisa Simpson's face, then the next different emotions, then the next her whole body. (this book: http://www.amazon.com/Simpsons-Handbook-Secret-Tips-Pros/dp/0061231290/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1427054789&sr=8-2&keywords=how+to+draw+the+simpsons)
A tried and true for me with that age group is making a simple pop-up card. I can do it in one lesson if need be, but if I can split it into two lessons I like to lead with the first half of Creative Galaxy season 101, episode 12, Arty's Book. For their first try I pre-prep the card stock with drawn lines that they cut. But after doing it once or twice most of them have it down.
Sorry, only various flavors of android and windows at my house.
This is the animation thing I was talking about.
There's also another one put out by Stikbot that he's interested in.
Foam sheets work well. You can scratch into them with the end of a paintbrush handle or something similar.
Here is a link to foam sheets our museum uses:
