Co-Teaching Do's, Don'ts, and Do Betters

Co-teaching has been increasingly adopted to support students in the general education classroom. After 20 years of field testing, we know what works—and what doesn't. In this practical guide, co-teaching and inclusion experts Toby J. Karten and Wendy W. Murawski detail the best practices for successful co-teaching and ways to troubleshoot common pitfalls. This book addresses the do's, don'ts, and do betters of: The co-teaching relationship and collaborative roles. Co-planning instruction and assessment. Co-teaching in action. Academic and behavioral supports and interventions. Collaborative reflections, improvements, and celebrations. Readers will gain valuable insights on what to start doing, what to stop doing, and how to improve their co-teaching practices to better reach all students.
