This upbeat session will begin with unique descriptions of the six different co-teaching models. Teachers will learn to implement the various models of co-teaching. It is important for teachers to stop working independently and begin collaborating to work smarter with co-workers. We will also discuss developing trust and truly listening to each other as professionals to meet student's needs. The session will address the partnership between General and Special Education staff. The second half of the session, teachers will break into groups to experience and practice "real-world" co-teaching situations. Teachers will be able to walk away with various models to attempt and implement within a Collaborative/Inclusion setting. MB-S18266
