Description:

The Science House is looking for a small cohort of North Carolina middle school science educators to help us develop classroom-ready, research-based instructional units aligned with the NC Science Standards. We have the foundation and resources in place. Now we need thoughtful, creative classroom teachers to help us turn them into cohesive, practical units using modeling that we can share freely with science teachers across North Carolina.

This is a stipend opportunity. Selected educators will learn about modeling instruction, work in grade-level teams to review and curate existing resources, develop and refine lessons, and help create materials designed with real classrooms and real students in mind.

Our in-person collaborative work days will be held from 9:00 a.m.–3:30 p.m. on:

• December 15
• February 23
• April 21
• Fourth collaborative date TBD

Participants will also collaborate virtually with their teams between sessions.

We are looking for educators who are passionate about student-centered science instruction, collaboration, and making great teaching resources accessible to educators across our state. Previous Modeling Instruction training is preferred, but it is not required to apply.

You don't need to be a professional curriculum writer. We want great teachers who know what works with students and are willing to bring their ideas, experience, and teacher perspective to the table.
