Dear Sir/Madam:
My interest in the fifth-grade instructional position has been aroused through a notice posted on [website database]. It was because of this that I decided to write and express how my academic background, as well as skills would be successful within this teaching profession.
My educational journey thus far includes completing an undergraduate degree focusing primarily on Elementary Education with minors including science education courses like evolution theory or habitat lessons where students explore animal behavior outside their comfort zone by observing species at different habitats throughout North America.
I am certified to teach in the state of Connecticut, and I have five years of teaching experience. These teaching experiences involved working with fifth-grade students in an urban school district.
The challenges my students face every day are enormous, but with the right teacher by their side, they can accomplish anything. I firmly believe that all students have the ability to learn, but often they just need someone to show them how.
In my previous fifth-grade teaching position, I was responsible for creating and implementing the curriculum for my students. I also created and taught science labs, which were aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). My students learned about the scientific method and how to use it to solve problems. They also learned how to use data to support their claims.
I am a strong advocate for hands-on learning, and I believe that students learn best when they are actively engaged in the learning process. I have seen firsthand how much my students grow when they are given the opportunity to explore and discover on their own.
I am confident that I can provide your students with the same high-quality education that I have provided my own students. I am eager to put my skills and knowledge to work in a new environment, and I believe that your school is the perfect place for me to do that.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
