What you'll do

The Avenues Intern Program is a two-year on-site teacher preparation program that offers early career educators the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a Primary Division language immersion setting. Interns collaborate closely with grade-level colleagues in all aspects of classroom life and beyond. In addition to their classroom work, interns will participate in weekly faculty meetings where they explore issues essential to primary education and discuss how these issues are playing out in our classrooms. These meetings also offer interns the opportunity to share and reflect upon their experiences, thereby gaining new perspectives. In your role, you will:

Support class and specialist teachers to develop and teach engaging, creative curriculum and lessons, aligned with Avenues expectations and approach
Run the morning and after school Playlab
