What is Co-Teaching?
"When a general education teacher and the special education service provider participate in lesson and activity planning together and work together in the same classroom to instruct both students with and without disabilities." http://nichcy.org/research/basics/researchterms
Who We Are
We are two veteran general education teachers with a combined 40+ years of experience venturing into the world of co-teaching. We are learning, discovering, and sharing as we go.
Michelle Copland is currently co-teaching fourth grade with Jamie Marcus (Special Educator). This is their second year co-teaching.
Kristen Kilpatrick is currently co-teaching fifth grade with Tori Frenkel (Special Educator). This is their first year co-teaching.
We created this blog to share our "trials and tribulations, " our successes, and our "epiphanies" about what matters most in our classrooms.
