Co-teaching is a proven instructional approach for reaching the wide range of student needs in today's inclusive classrooms. This workshop will provide you with clear descriptions of the myriad of co-teaching styles you have to choose from and help you plan your first step for getting started (or refining the approach you are already using.) The presenter will share practical ways for defining your roles, planning for and providing instruction that works, and tips for maximizing the value of each team member. There will also be an emphasis on creative, yet time-efficient instructional strategies that lend themselves beautifully to the co-taught classroom.
