7th Grade Ela Teacher- Idea Health Professions
1 month ago
**Description**
Role Mission: IDEA ELA teachers are responsible for the increasing student achievement and mastery of grade level content. ELA teachers deliver pre-AP instruction that provides students the knowledge and skills needed to access AP & high school level ELA curriculum. Teachers are tasked with delivering quality instruction and supports that facilitate student learning and comprehension, playing a critical role in students’ path to and through college.
At IDEA, the goal is to provide students with a foundation that prepares them to be literate thinkers in school, college, and beyond. Today’s scholars must be able to engage with complex texts independently, read for knowledge, and respond to texts through written and oral communication. Additionally, they must be able to navigate the wide range of texts available through online media, discern audience and purpose, seek evidence, and appreciate a range of cultures and perspectives. Reading is state assessed for grades 6th, 7th, and 8th. Writing is state assessed in 7th grade.
