About the RoleJob Description

As an Urban Education Specialist - Science Teacher at Uncommon Schools, you will be part of a grade-level team preparing all students with the tools and knowledge to critically engage in the field of science. At the heart of all Science courses is a love for the subject and inquiry-based learning, including a robust focus on student discourse and the science practices.

You will teach an interdisciplinary, NGSS-aligned curriculum that includes analysis of key areas such as climate and Earth's systems, the cosmos, matter and energy transformations, electricity and magnetism, and molecular and ecological systems.

You will develop students' practices of questioning, modeling, constructing explanations, data analysis, argumentation, and planning and conducting interactive labs.

You will use your love of science to foster confidence and meaningful engagement with the subject for students.

You will cultivate an awareness of the interconnected nature of fields of science (e.g., ecosystems, climate change, and lunar phases) and our local and global community.

Responsibilities
  • Data Analysis
  • School Culture

You will partner with students' families to ensure appropriate resources are available to support their child's learning needs.
