Co-Planning & Co-Teaching

Step One: Decide on a Goal for Student Learning

Things to think about...

• Who drives the goal-setting?
• What is the goal based on?
• How will the goal tie to instruction?

Step Two: Analyze the Student Work

Things to think about...

• Does the work make the student learning visible?
• Or, is it just a 'test'?
• What are the trends you are seeing?
• What about our less typical learners? 

Step Three: Plan How to Co-Teach the Lesson

Things to think about...

• What will the teacher do?
• What will the coach do?
• It's about shared ownership.

When co-teaching, we can...

• Teach in tandem
• Confer with students
• Collect student evidence
• The key is we are working in partnership

Step Four: Use Student Evidence to Plan the Next Lesson

Things to think about

• Our goal is to see student growth over time
• So we have to be in the classroom on a regular basis
• We work to add value to the teaching and learning
