What is Co-Teaching? Two or more educators teaching a single group of students primarily in one location or classroom Shared responsibility, ownership, and accountability
Co-Teaching Models One Teach, One Observe: One teacher leads whole group instruction while the other makes observations and collects data about the students One Teach, One Drift: One teacher leads whole group instruction and the other provides unobtrusive assistance to students as needed
Co-Teaching Models Parallel Teaching: The class is divided into two groups and the same lesson is delivered simultaneously Station Teaching: Students rotate to stations with both teachers leading a station and one station is designated for seatwork
Co-Teaching Models Alternative Teaching: The large group completes the planned lesson while a small group is pulled to work on a different lesson or the same lesson at a different level (remediate/ enrich) Team Teaching: Both teachers are delivering instruction to the entire class at the same time
Challenges of Co-Teaching Finding time to plan together Establishing trust Establishing roles and responsibilities Deciding on a mutually agreeable classroom management model
Benefits of Co-Teaching Sense of belonging for students with special needs Mutual respect between special needs students and regular education students An additional educator to deliver differentiated instruction Sense of support for teachers involved
