The Lead Teacher for a combination class of third and fourth grade students will be responsible to teach English Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies using an interdisciplinary, inquiry- and project-based approach to teaching and learning. In addition to the academic subjects, the teacher is responsible to help students develop 21st-century skills, e.g., problem-solving, critical thinking, collaboration, research and creativity. Helping students develop socially and emotionally is another important area of responsibility. As NYA is a new school, teachers are involved in and responsible for developing the curriculum around interdisciplinary units of study centered on main ideas or themes.
