What Is Inclusion and Collaborative Teaching?
FIRST THINGS FIRST,
![Page 5: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Inclusion and Collaborative Teaching:Two licensed teachers, one regular education teacher and one special education teacher in a classroom with majority regular education students (less than 50% special education students).

Tips for Planning & Teaching
Regularly Collaborate
Collaborate with special education/regular education teachers, related service providers, and para- professionals on a regular basis.
ShareWork load
& Plan
If you are co-teaching, commit to planning at least once a week with your co-teaching partner and determine your respective teaching responsibilities. Write your plans down and share the workload.
![Page 8: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Parallel Teaching
Students are divided into mixed-ability groups, and each co-teaching partner teaches the same material to one of the groups.
Station Teaching
Small groups of students rotate to various stations for instruction, review, and/or practice.
Use a Variety of Co-Teaching Methods
Interactive Teaching
Teachers alternate roles of presenting, reviewing, and monitoring instruction.
Alternative Teaching
One person teaches, reteaches, or enriches a concept for a small group, while the other monitors or teaches the remaining students.
![Page 9: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Strategies & Approaches
Create customized instructional goals, methods, materials and assessments that work for all
students. Allow students to use their unique
strengths to work as a team with their
peers.
Teach the same concepts with multiple levels of
complexity built into the lesson to give students the choice to learn at a
level that challenges, but doesn’t overwhelm, them.
SPED students learn to be independent, &
successful, in a general ed. setting (Cornell Notes, note cards, memorization, mnemonic devices, etc.)
Ensure you have copies of all
students’ annual goals, objectives, accommodations
and modifications.

Tips for Structured Lessons
Flexible Grouping
Differentiate instruction by using flexible grouping, providing activities that appeal to various learning-style preferences, giving students choices, and creating alternative activities and assessments (Tomlinson, 2001).
Universal Design
Think "universal design" when planning instruction. "The central premise of Universal Design for Learning is that a curriculum should include alternatives to make it accessible and appropriate for individuals with different backgrounds, learning styles, abilities, and disabilities in widely varied learning contexts" (CAST, 2004, 3).
![Page 11: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Videos, Software, & Role-playingFlexible means of engagement as students learn
Incorporate three qualities of universal design when planning instruction:
Writing, Illustrating, Speaking
Multiple means of students' expression of
content
Visual & Oral Strategies
Multiple means of representing content
![Page 12: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Provide opportunities for students to work in small groups and in pairs.
If cooperative learning strategies are used, five conditions must be present:
Small Group Instruction
Cooperative behavior should be taught to and used by students
12345 Students should be held
individually accountable
Group work should be structured so that students depend on one another to complete a task successfully
The task must be authentic, worthwhile, and appropriate for students working in groups
Small-group learning must be the goal
![Page 13: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Graphic Organizers
Use graphic organizers to assist students with organizing information in meaningful ways. For example, word walls, word maps, process maps, fill in the section (scaffolded), etc.
Many students learn best via visualization.
![Page 14: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
INSTRUCTIONAL SEQUENCE: "I do" (teacher model),
"We do" (group practice),
"You do" (individual practice).
Provide supports or scaffolds to students as they are learning new material and withdraw them when they are able to perform the task on their own.
I Do, We Do, You Do
![Page 15: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
LEARNING STRATEGIES
Employ active learning strategies such as "think, pair, share" to promote recall and understanding of new learning.
This strategy allows students to reflect individually on a question, pair up with a partner to share and compare answers, and finally give the best answer.
Think,Pair, Share
![Page 16: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
COMBINED EFFORT
Content & StrategiesTeach learning strategies along with content material.
Strategy instruction may be defined simply as instruction in how to learn and perform (Lenz, Deshler, & Kissam, 2004). "Learning strategies help students learn and perform by providing them with a specific set of steps for:
(a) approaching new and difficult tasks,
(b) guiding thoughts and actions,
(c) completing tasks in a timely and successful manner, and
(d) thinking strategically.
Learning strategies may include organizing materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.

ASSESSMENT
Use ongoing informal and formal assessments to help inform instruction and monitor student progress.
![Page 18: The Inclusion Model Effective Strategies for Co-Teaching ...materials, memorizing information, taking notes, reading text, mnemonics, picture association with notes, and taking tests.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042207/5ea9ed8f9a859b2ce06cfb94/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Tips for Classroom Management
✔Create a structured classroom. This may include designating separate areas for group and individual work and centers for reading or art, as well as creating a daily class schedule.
✔Help students organize their materials by using checklists, folders, and containers to keep materials organized in desks.
✔ Utilize both teachers with movement and voice. ✔ Provide opportunities for purposeful
movement.
✔ Display classroom rules. ✔ Set non-negotiables.
✔ Plan for transition times (between subjects or tasks, before and after lunch, changing classes). ✔ Develop classroom cues for settling
down to work, getting out materials, and quieting down.
✔ Visually monitor student activity. ✔ Post the daily schedule incorporating color.
✔ Be aware of all accommodations/ modifications and track implementation.

COMMON PITFALLS
Lack of tracking of implementation of mod/accomm.
Running errands and working in IEP’s during class (distractions from teaching and learning)
Lack of planning
One leads while the other one sits
Lack of core content provided by special education teachers – must be seen as equals
Lack of differentiationLack of addressing learning styles and implementing different teaching approaches

Steps to Differentiating Instruction in an Inclusive Learning Environment
Phase 1 Pre-Class
12
Diagnostically screen all students and evaluate individual profiles.
Group students based on learning needs, strengths, and deficits.
NOTE: The data used to diagnostically screen each child should also be used to write present levels of performance, establish standards-based goals and objectives, and to track progress on all goals and objectives.

Steps to Differentiating Instruction in an Inclusive Learning Environment
Phase 2 Class
3 Provide direct instruction to the whole group using paired, interactive teaching.
4 Non-teaching partner moves throughout room helping students individually.
5Provide small group activities with 4-5 students per group (at least one group with technology/personalized learning) and two direct teach (small group) stations led by teachers.
