Overview:

We are seeking dedicated and qualified STEM Interventionists to join our elementary school team. The STEM Interventionist will work collaboratively with teachers, administrators, and parents to provide targeted support to students in grades K-6 who are struggling with science and mathematical concepts and skills. The ideal candidate will possess a strong foundation in science and mathematics education and expertise in implementing evidence-based intervention strategies to promote student success in STEM.

Responsibilities:

1.

Assessment and Data Analysis:

Conduct ongoing assessments to identify students' STEM strengths and weaknesses. Analyze assessment data to determine specific areas of need and inform intervention planning. Monitor student progress and adjust interventions as necessary based on data analysis. Train teachers in the interpretation of screener, diagnostic state, and district assessment results Collaborate with teachers and administrators to analyze data to inform instruction and plan for whole and small-group instruction 2.

Individualized Intervention Planning:

Develop personalized intervention plans for students based on assessment data and individual learning needs. Implement targeted intervention strategies to address conceptual misunderstandings, procedural fluency, and problem-solving skills. Modify intervention plans as needed to meet the changing needs of students. 3.

Small Group Instruction:

Provide small group instruction to students requiring additional support in STEM. Differentiate instruction to accommodate diverse learning needs and abilities. Utilize a variety of instructional materials and manipulatives to engage students in STEM concepts and skills.

Instructional Support:

Plan, model, and co-teach effective lessons in the classroom Build teacher capacity by improving instructional practices resulting in increased student learning Build effective relationships with teachers and administration in order to promote a climate of continuous professional growth Cultivate collaboration across teams for data analysis, goal setting, and implementing effective instruction strategies aligned to specific problems in learning Provide support for implementation of best practices in STEM as well as current district programs (iReady, ST math, Bridges Number Corner) 4.

Collaboration and Communication:

Collaborate with classroom teachers, special education staff, and other support personnel to coordinate interventions and align instructional goals. Communicate regularly with parents/guardians to provide updates on student progress and strategies for supporting math learning at home. Participate in MTSS meetings as necessary 5.

Professional Development:

Stay informed about current research, best practices, and resources related to mathematics instruction and intervention. Participate in professional development opportunities to enhance knowledge and skills in math intervention. Share expertise and resources with colleagues to support the overall improvement of STEM instruction across the school or district. 6.
