Genesis Innovation Academy Hiring for Elementary Teacher (Kindergarten) Job at Atlanta, GA Full Time

SCHOOL: Genesis Innovation Academy

DESCRIPTION

We seek teachers who are proactive learners and problem solvers, who are committed to excellence from scholars and themselves, and who believe that teaching is a calling and not a job.

All instruction should help young scholars become critical thinkers and innovative problem solvers. Play and movement will be learning tools.

Elementary Teachers in grades 2-5 teach in one of two major subject areas: ELA-Reading and STEM

• Reading-ELA focused teachers will plan to develop scholars’ understanding of themselves and their world through analysis of age-appropriate books/literature, art, and music. Reading skills will be developed by inspiring a love of books and by using best practice reading strategies. Instruction should help scholars develop into persuasive and compelling thinkers, writers, and speakers.

• STEM-focused teachers will create instructional plans that inspire learning by facilitating investigation and discovery in science and math, and when appropriate, technology and engineering.

Single-Gender Instruction – Genesis has a single-gender model. Teachers may apply to either the Boys or the Girls Academy or may be placed in the Academy that is deemed the best fit.

• GIRLS’ ACADEMY teachers should be committed to creating an environment in which our girls can become the empowered, accomplished young women they were meant to be.
• BOYS’ ACADEMY teachers should appreciate the energy of elementary school boys, and be committed to helping develop strong, scholarly young men of character and discipline.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree OR Certification in Early Elementary Education or a core subject
• Excellent organizational, planning, and communication skills
