What is co-teaching?
![Page 7: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Defining Co-Teaching
Co-teaching occurs when two or
more professionals jointly
deliver substantive instruction
to a diverse, or blended, group
of students in a single physical
space.
Cook and Friend, 1995
![Page 8: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

What is co-teaching?
Co-teaching is first and foremost an approach for meeting the educational needs of students with diverse learning abilities.
Cook & Friend, 1995
![Page 9: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

What is co-teaching?
Co-teaching is a service delivery option for providing special education or related services to students with disabilities or other special needs while they remain in their general education classes.
Friend & Cook
2007
![Page 10: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

What is co-teaching?
Co-teaching occurs when two or more teachers, one general educator and the other a special service provider (e.g. special education, related services, ELL, reading) share physical space in order to actively instruct a blended group of students, including students with disabilities.
![Page 11: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

What’s the difference?
Co-teaching Class-within-a-class Collaboration Paraprofessional Assigned to
Class
![Page 12: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Co-teaching Vs. Other Delivery Options
Who plans the lessons? Who provides the instruction to
all students? Do both teachers interact with
all parents, or are students divided into groups (yours and mine)?
Who determines grades for all students?
Who makes adaptations and does follow up?
![Page 13: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Co-teaching is a service delivery system, in which:
Two (or more) professionally credentialed staff
Share instructional responsibility
For a single group of students
Primarily in a single classroom or workspace
![Page 14: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Co-teaching Definition (continued)
To teach required curriculum
With mutual ownership, pooled resources, and joint accountability
Although each individual’s level of participation may vary.
Marilyn Friend (2007)
![Page 15: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Co-teaching is not:
An extra set of hands in the classroom;
The general education teacher providing instruction as if she or he was teaching alone while the special educator roams;
Two individuals taking turns teaching;
![Page 16: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
An individual pulling a small group of students aside to deliver instruction completely separate from that being provided to the rest of the class.
Shoring up incompetent staff.
Co-teaching is not:
![Page 17: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Co-teaching will not resolve
issues of incompetent staff…
![Page 18: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Why co-teach?
Teachers with different specialties, e.g. general and special education, can better meet the needs of a diverse population of students.
“Co-teaching should result in direct instructional and social benefits for students who have IEPs.”
Friend and Cook, 2007
![Page 19: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Why co-teach?
Special educators have developed a tendency to “own” students on IEPs which decreases participation of general ed teachers in collaborative problem solving
General educators have more ownership when they have background knowledge and a chance to participate in the decisions
![Page 20: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Pros of Co-Teaching
All children learn from each other• Typical children become more
accepting of individual differences
• Improved self-esteem for special needs students
• All students exposed to a variety of teaching styles and strategies
• Students have role models
![Page 21: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
Pros of Co-Teaching
Provides for highly qualified teachers in the least restrictive environment
Provides a “strategies expert” for ALL students who are having difficulty
Students become active learners through frequent interaction and feedback.
![Page 22: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Student Benefits of Co-Teaching
Cohesive programming occurs when connections are made between students’ individual needs and the regular classroom curriculum.
Individualization of instruction increases.
![Page 23: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23
Student Benefits of Co-Teaching
Research indicates that special education students score higher on achievement tests when they are exposed to content knowledge in a regular education classroom.
![Page 24: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
Why co-teaching? Why now?
IDEA and NCLB requirements• Gives students access to highly
qualified subject- matter teachers (HQT)
• Least Restrictive Environment (LRE)
• Access to general education curriculum
• Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)
![Page 25: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
Wider range of instructional alternatives for all students
Reduces fragmentation of learning
Enhances the participation of students with special needs as full classroom members
Why co-teaching? Why now?
![Page 26: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Why co-teaching? Why now?
Creates conditions in which students with disabilities and other groups can make AYP
Provides powerful support for the professionals who teach
Reduces stigma for students
![Page 27: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
It’s not about us (the educators); it’s about them (the students).
![Page 28: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
Think of special education as a service, not a place.
![Page 29: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Inclusive Schools. . .
Don’t ask, “How does this
student have to change in
order to be in this class?” But
rather, “How do we have to
change in order to offer full
membership to our students
with disabilities?”
![Page 30: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
How can co-teaching help meet students’ needs?
Can any one teacher meet the educational, social and physical needs of all students?
![Page 31: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

![Page 35: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
Building Bridges
Walking across the bridge, leaving the familiar ground of working alone, is the first act of collaboration. All parties are on neutral territory, with the security of knowing they can return to land better, stronger and changed. And perhaps they will return to the same side of the bridge even though they started from opposite sides.
Steele, Bell, & George, 2005

Points to Ponder
What has been your experience with co-teaching?
What role is co-teaching playing in your schools’ efforts to address the requirements of NCLB and IDEA?
When you think about co-teaching, what are the concerns or questions you have?
![Page 37: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Take a look at co-teaching…
![Page 41: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41
One Teach, One Observe
One teacher teaches and the
other systematically collects
data on a student, group of
students or entire class on
behaviors the professionals
have previously agreed upon.
![Page 42: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

![Page 43: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
One Teach, One ObserveBenefits: Opportunity for observation of
students and data collection• Jointly decided specifics to observe and analyze in advance
• Both professionals should discuss the results of the observations
Deepen understanding of each other’s teaching styles
Requires little joint planning
![Page 44: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44
One Teach, One Observe
Drawbacks, if used to excess:
Special service provider is relegated to the role of assistant
Students do not see teachers as having equivalent responsibility and authority
Recommended Use:
Periodic (5-10%)
![Page 45: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
45
Station Teaching
Students in groups of three or
more rotate to various teacher-
led and independent work
stations where new instruction,
review, and/or practice is
provided. Students may work at
all stations during the rotation
![Page 46: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

47
Station Teaching
Benefits: Involves both educators in
instruction Enables a clear division of labor
for planning and teaching Allows for different teaching
styles Students benefit from a lower
teacher-pupil ratio Students with disabilities are
integrated into groups, rather than singled out
![Page 48: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
48
Station Teaching
Drawbacks: Noise and movement within the
classroom• Teachers or students may be distracted by two teachers talking in the classroom at the same time.
Teachers need to think about how to divide instruction. Hierarchical material cannot be presented using this approach.
Lessons must be timed so groups can move as scheduled.
Recommended Use: Frequent (30-40%)
![Page 49: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
49
Parallel Teaching
Students are divided into two
heterogeneous groups. Each
partner teaches a group
essentially the same material.
![Page 50: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

Teacher 1
Teacher 2
Both teachers teach the same content in the same room simultaneously
![Page 51: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
51
Parallel Teaching
Benefits:
Lowers the teacher-student ratio, while insuring diversity in each group;
Is good for review, drill-and-practice activities, topics needing student discussion, or projects needing close teacher supervision.
![Page 52: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
52
Parallel Teaching
Drawbacks: Cannot be used for initial instruction
unless both educators are qualified to teach the material (primarily at the high school level)
Noise and activity levels need to be monitored;
Teachers need to pace instruction similarly
Requires that both teachers are familiar with content and how to teach it
Recommended Use: Frequent (30-40%)
![Page 53: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
53
Alternative Teaching
One teacher works with a small
group of students, while the
other instructs the large group
in some content or activity that
the small group can afford to
miss.
![Page 54: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

Alternative Teaching
Benefits:
Provides highly intensive instruction;
Ensures that all students get to interact with a teacher in a small group;
May assist with reducing behavior problems with some students;

Alternative Teaching
Drawbacks: Students with disabilities may be
stigmatized by being grouped repeatedly for preteaching or re-teaching
Each teacher must take turns working with the small group or may be viewed as an assistant
The same students must not repeatedly selected for the small group. Documentation must be kept so all students may participate
Recommended Use: Occasional (20-30%)

Team Teaching
Partners plan and share
instruction of all students,
whether it occurs in a large
group, in monitoring students
working independently, or in
facilitating groups of students
working on shared projects.

Sources of Failure
Failing to distinguish clearly among the roles of the various adults who might be in the classroom---teachers, related service providers, paraprofessionals, student teachers, volunteers.
Basing co-teaching on the preferences of the staff rather than on clear standards, expectations and the needs of the students.
![Page 68: Co-Teaching 101: A Beginning Presented by Janice Putman and Maureen Rauscher Improvement Consultants.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/551b6097550346d31b8b5814/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)

Periods of Change Are Not Easy. . .
Requires commitment to alter practice
No change is completely orderly
• Requires a period of “chaos” from which the new practices evolve
• Strive for “planned change”

We can’t do what we’ve always done and expect
better results.
To improve, you must change what you are currently doing.• Get rid of some old habits• Learn some new strategies
To have all students LEARN, we must change what we do in education.

88
Provide Weekly Scheduled Co- Planning Time
Co-Teaching teams should have a minimum of one scheduling/planning period (45 – 60 min/week).
Experienced teams should spend 10 minutes to plan each lesson.

Agenda for Planning Meetings
The general education teacher should prepare a brief overview of curricular concepts to be addressed.
The co-teachers should decide how they will address the content using co-teaching approaches.

Agenda for Planning Meetings
Teachers should determine the challenges for students and brainstorm ideas for differentiating instruction.
The last topic on the agenda concerns individual students.

Considerations
Eliminate or change titles, e.g. both are “teachers” or use neutral language such as “generalist” and “interventionist”
Eliminate divisive language, e.g. your kids, my kids or “my room”
Get both teachers’ names on the report cards, letters home and other correspondence
Vary who gives instructions or takes the lead
Be aware of seating and grouping arrangements
