Models of Co-teaching
Complementary Teaching
or
One Teach, One Assist
Parallel Teaching
Team TeachingSlide5
Complementary Teaching or
One Teach, One Assist
Lead teacher organizes and plans all aspects of the lesson, but the second professional should be included and informed of the plans and expectations.
Lead teacher conducts the formal teaching and leads the lesson.
Second professional monitors the class and assists individual students as needed.
Benefit is in having one teacher to monitor behavior and answer questions as the other teacher leads the lesson. Also, there are two teachers to help individual students after the whole group lesson is presented.

Parallel Teaching
Lead teacher and second professional collaboratively organize the lesson content. Each small group is having the same lesson with the same objectives and assessments.
Lead teacher and second professional split the student into two groups.
Lead teacher and second professional independently deliver the lesson plan to each of the groups and facilitate learning in their groups.
Lead teacher and second professional monitor their own groups.
Lead teacher and second professional use post lesson reflection to share evaluation results and discuss the lesson outcome.
Benefits include increased student participation, publication and sharing. Also, it lowers the teacher-to-student ration and allows teachers to work more intensively with a small group of students.
