Objective
Learners will understand the various ways co-teaching can be implemented and positive conditions associated with effective co-teaching situations.
Case Study
Thinking back to the beginning of the course...Mrs. K has a class of 20 students, three of which do no speak English as their first language. She also finds out that because she has these students, she will be sharing her classroom and working with another teacher, an ENL teacher. Mrs. K feels uncertain and confused about the language that revolves around working with non-English speakers and about teaching with another teacher.
Not only has Mrs. K had to learn about her ELLs and ENL in general, but she is also learning how to share her classroom with another teacher and making that teacher feel like an equal in the classroom.
