CoTeaching WHAT IS COTEACHING WHAT ARE THE STRENGTHS

Co-Teaching WHAT IS CO-TEACHING? WHAT ARE THE STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES TO EACH MODEL OF COTEACHING? HOW CAN I BEST SUPPORT MY SCHOLARS USING THE MATH CURRICULUM WHILE USING CO-TEACHING?

Co-Teaching: Identifying Different Models �There are 6 types of co-teaching models: One Teach, One Observe Section Teaching Parallel Teaching Alternative Teaching Team Teaching One Teach, One Assist As we watch the You. Tube Video, identify specifically what each teacher is doing per teacher model announced. https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=TCn 4 q. Dyu. ZVE

One Teach, One Observe �What did you notice? Discuss with peers and be prepared to share!

One Teach, One Observe �One teacher is able to teach the lesson, while the other gathers assessment information from scholars �Teachers should take turns gather data and teaching the class. �What are some strengths of One Teach, One Observe? �What are some weaknesses with this approach?

Section/Station Teaching �What did you notice? Discuss with peers and be prepared to share!

Section/Station Teaching �Teachers divide content and students. �Teachers teach information while students are at centers �What are some strengths of Section Teaching? �What are some weaknesses with this approach?

Parallel Teaching �What did you notice? Discuss with peers and be prepared to share!

Parallel Teaching �Teachers divide group in half and teach the same information to both groups of students. �What are some strengths of Parallel Teaching? �What are some weaknesses with this approach?

Alternative Teaching �What did you notice? Discuss with peers and be prepared to share!

Alternative Teaching �Allows a teacher to give specialized attention to particular students. One teacher will have a larger group while the other will work with a much smaller group to pre-teach and/or revisit information. �What are some strengths of Alternative Teaching? �What are some weaknesses with this approach?

Team Teaching �What did you notice? Discuss with peers and be prepared to share!

Team Teaching �“Tag Team” Teaching �Teachers share the delivery of instruction �Collaboration is a must, so it takes a lot of time to develop, however the rewards tend to be grand! �What are some strengths of Team Teaching? �What are some weaknesses with this approach?

One Teach, One Assist �One person teaches the entire classroom, while the other assists throughout the room providing extra support when needed. �What are some strengths of One Teach, One Assist? �What are some weaknesses with this approach?

Co-Teaching Activity �With co-teachers, identify a lesson that you can co-teach using one (or more!) of the first five strategies. �Together, fill out the Co-teaching form to help you analyze the curriculum you are using. �Identify a co-teaching strategy you would like to practice (can be more than one depending on the lesson!) �Create a cohesive lesson plan in which your group is coteaching in a manner beneficial to the students. �Create an anchor chart including: objective, materials, lesson plan, and the responsibility of each teacher. Think about what may hinder your teacher performance and/or student performance during this lesson and using this teaching model.

Questions to guide through after: �What went well during the co-planning and co-teaching processes? �What problems did you encounter? �What are the strengths of these processes? �What are the weaknesses or limitations �What problems may you anticipate when you co-teach this lesson? �What are the anticipated advantages of co-teaching this lesson?
