elementary teachers

Young children's educators

Elementary teachers are educators who work with children in the primary grades, typically kindergarten through fifth or sixth grade.

They usually teach multiple subjects to the same group of students throughout the school year, distinguishing them from secondary teachers who specialize in single subjects: Elementary teachers need to be generalists—comfortable with reading, math, science, and social studies.
