What are the responsibilities and job description for the ENGLISH LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT TEACHER - DISTRICT - 2024-2025 SY position at Fall River Joint Unified School District?
The job of an educator is as diverse as the students they serve. Unlike classroom teachers, these teachers help students from different grade levels, sometimes spanning grades from kindergarten through 12th grade. Because students come from many backgrounds, ELD teachers must possess keen observation skills and the ability to tailor their instruction to meet each student's individual needs. Lessons focus on vocabulary development, fluency, articulation and comprehension. Students often bring books, problems, and reports from their other classes to the ELD teacher so they learn to develop language skills in context.
In addition to helping students with daily lessons, the ELA teacher acts as a liaison between the student, family, school and community. The ELD teacher is responsible for administering standardized tests and tracking their students' progress against state standards. The ELD teacher also helps the student and family understand U.S. culture and social norms. The ELD teacher may work with interpreters to communicate information to the family about student progress, school programs or district events.
