Co-Teaching Meaningful Access

This session is designed to provide school staff with strategies and interventions to promote meaningful access for all learners across all school settings. Meaningful Access ensures that students with disabilities who receive special education and related services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) have equal opportunities to engage with and make progress in the general education curriculum and environment. This concept is deeply rooted in inclusive practices, which involve intentional, systematic actions designed to meet the individual needs of each student. Inclusion is achieved when these practices are implemented with fidelity, allowing students with disabilities to learn, participate, and make progress alongside their peers without disabilities in a meaningful and equitable manner throughout their entire school experience.

Important Session Information:

Join us for aninteractive, one-day, face-to-face workshop on Co-Teaching, designed by the Texas Education Agency. This session moves beyond foundational concepts to focus on practical applications. Participants will learn how to build strong co-teaching partnerships through effective communication, collaborative planning, and shared responsibility for all learners. Explore the six co-teaching approaches and discover when and how to use each model to maximize student access and engagement. The workshop emphasizes integrating high-leverage instructional strategies, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and Specially Designed Instruction (SDI) into co-taught lessons. By the end of the day, participants will leave with actionable tools and strategies to implement and sustain inclusive, high-impact learning environments that meet their students’ needs.
