Co-Teaching Student Survey

lbrewer30 — 2023-11-09 15:13:19 UTC

Use this survey at the end of a semester or end of the year to get student input to gauge your level of parity in the classroom. Pair this data with your self-reflection tool to continue to work on your Co-Teaching Partnership.

Station Teaching

lbrewer30 — 2023-11-17 17:44:55 UTC

POSITIVES

-Teachers can reach instructional goals by grouping students into small groups

- Closing monitor learning

- Separate students who have difficulty working with each other

-Interactive and student engagement - allows for more student participation through discussions and activities

CHALLENGES

- Each station must function independently - Ex. prewrite - write - edit = does not function independently

- Noise level

- Same amount of time per station

lbrewer30 — 2023-11-17 17:45:00 UTC

Alternative Teaching

lbrewer30 — 2023-11-17 17:45:14 UTC

OPPORTUNITIES

- Teachers can conduct intensive instruction in the small groups to SWD or MLL

- Teachers can implement Specially Designed Instruction for SWD.

- Provides flexibility = enrichment, remediation, assessment, or pre-teaching

- Personalized interactions with students

CHALLENGES

- preventing the stigma of the small group the same as pullout services. Students in small group viewed as special education students.
