Course description

The Initial Co-Teaching Training serves as the first component of a comprehensive professional learning and coaching system designed to support effective collaborative teaching practices. This session is intended for teachers, administrators, and instructional support personnel who are beginning or refining their co-teaching journey. Participants will engage in interactive learning experiences that establish a shared understanding of co-teaching and its role in improving student outcomes.

Learning Objectives

During this training participants will:

  • define what co-teaching is—and what it is not

  • develop a common language around collaborative instruction

  • create a concise rationale statement that articulates the purpose and value of co-teaching within their context

  • identify similarities, unique features, advantages, and cautions associated with the four co-teaching approaches

  • explore practical tools that support collaboration and communication, strengthening planning and instructional partnerships
