DEEP COLLABORATION THROUGH LANGUAGE IMMERSION

Collaboration here isn't a buzzword: it's woven into everything we do given that our students in grades 1-5 alternate their days between their English and Target Language classrooms.

  • Teacher teams composed of English and Spanish teachers or English and Chinese teachers share two classes of students
  • Teacher teams share responsibility for teaching curriculum that promotes their students’ social, emotional and academic growth in both languages.
  • Given this structure teacher teams communicate daily to plan lessons and discuss student progress
  • Additionally teachers collaborate with fellow grade-level and language colleagues during weekly meetings.



WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Collaborate intensively and daily with English and target language (Spanish) colleagues to design learning outcomes, monitor growth, and thoughtfully address individual student needs.
  • Design and teach an innovative curriculum that engages all learners in meaningful and challenging work that cultivates real-world problem solving skills and develops social responsibility.
  • Employ a range of instructional practices to meet the needs of a diverse group of learners based on informal and formal assessments.
  • Deeply connect with students, colleagues and parents to vigorously uphold a culture of welcome, safety and respect.
  • Invoke a robust learning atmosphere that leads students to value being at school and feel part of a rigorous and joyful learning community.
