A collaborative teaching strategy where both individuals plan and freely share ideas, information, and resources to ensure that all students meet their educational goals. Both individuals listen to, respect, acknowledge, and support the efforts of each other, and can easily move between leader and follower, assuming either role as necessary to accomplish the task at hand.
An attitude of sharing the classroom and students- our students, our room.
Spend time learning about one another as individuals, not just as educators
Post both names/schedules near the classroom door
Provide a desk or a designated work area for the co-teacher with copies of manuals, texts
Discuss classroom rules and expectations for student behavior as well as acceptable rewards and consequences
Introduce your co-teacher as a teacher Co-planning is a must
One Teach, One Observe One teacher has primary instructional
responsibility while the other gathers specific information on students or the instructing teacher.
One Teach, One Assist (Drift) One teacher has the primary instructional
responsibility while the other assists students with their work, monitors behavior, or corrects assignments.
Station Teaching The co-teaching pair divides the instructional
content into parts. Each teacher instructs one of the groups. Groups then rotate or spend a designated amount of time at each station (an independent station may be used)
Parallel Teaching Each teacher instructs half of the students,
addressing the same content and using the same strategy
Supplemental Teaching Allows one teacher to work with students at
their expected grade level, while the other teacher works with students who need the information re-taught, extended, or remediated.
Alternative/Differentiated Teaching Teachers provide two different approaches to
teaching the same information. The learning outcomes are the same for all students, but the avenue for getting there is different.
Team Teaching Teachers exhibit an invisible flow of
instruction with no prescribed division of authority. Both teachers share information, are free to interject, and are available to assist students and answer questions.
DO- Both teachers have a lead role? Both teachers work with all students? We use a variety of co-teaching approaches? Students see both teachers as equal partners
in the classroom? Students ask both teachers for clarification
and/or assistance? Both teachers participate in student
assessment? We actively reinforce classroom rules
and manage the classroom together ?
