Co-Planning & Co-Teaching

If we don't co-plan, we can't co-teach.

In Coaching Cycles

• We co-plan and co-teach every week
• We partner during co-teaching
• We are sure that we have planned together so that we can both have a voice in the lesson

This means...

• We have to set the norm that we will plan weekly
• If teachers can't make the time, then we don't do a coaching cycle right now
• The coach has to make the time too
• We use thoughtful, and streamlined structures to stay on track

Let's watch a coach set up the expectations for co-planning and co-teaching

Let's Practice

• Work with a partner
• Analyze the student writing
• Co-plan a lesson

Be Sure To...

• Share the ownership
• Craft learning targets
• Develop a rigorous lesson
• Differentiate for students

Let's analyze coaching in action.

Partner Work: Reflect on a recent coaching session. Identify one thing you would adjust based on today's learning.
