Co-teachers: Mrs. Peters and Mr. Donley 4H

What is Co-teaching ? Co-teaching is where a general education teacher and a special education teacher work together in one classroom.

What does is look like? The following are 5 Different approaches to co-teaching:

One teach another supports

• One teacher leads instruction, while the other provides support to students who need additional help or enrichment, gathers observation data, or provides classroom management

Alternative teaching

• One teacher instructs a large group while the other works with a smaller group on different content/task

Parallel teaching

• Class is split into small groups with each co-teacher responsible for implementing the same lesson to a group

Circuit/Station teaching

• Each teacher works with a small group of children who rotate among various stations to complete the different tasks related to the same instructional content/objective.
