About the Role
We're building out the official student lesson book for our school program for grades 5–12. We already have a piloted curriculum framework and student worksheets; what's missing is the actual teaching content: clear, engaging explanations, definitions, and concept breakdowns that bring each lesson to life.
We're looking for a strong curriculum writer to build this content from the ground up.
What You'll Do
● Write the full student lesson book — definitions, concept explanations, and instructional narrative — based on our existing curriculum outline and prior pilot materials
● Ensure new lesson content aligns with and complements our existing student worksheets, adjusting worksheets as needed for consistency
● Maintain a consistent tone, vocabulary, and progression of concepts across all lessons
● Incorporate feedback and direction from our curriculum lead into revisions
● Support content development for new curriculum tracks as they're introduced
What We're Looking For
● Strong writing and editing background, ideally in children's educational content or curriculum writing for grades 5–12
● Ability to translate complex or abstract concepts into clear, age-appropriate explanations
● Comfortable working from an existing outline or framework rather than starting from a blank page
● Highly detail-oriented, with the ability to maintain a consistent voice across a large body of content
● Comfort incorporating feedback and iterating quickly
Nice to Have
● Experience writing workbooks, student handouts, or other printed/digital lesson materials
● Experience working within an established curriculum framework rather than designing one independently
● Experience in K-12 or youth education, project-based or experiential learning, or digital learning or EdTech would be valuable.
To Apply
Please share your resume along with a writing sample — ideally student-facing educational content — that demonstrates your ability to explain concepts clearly for a young audience.
