1. Parallel Teaching • Each teacher presents the same information to the students, but can do so in different ways. • Allows for student grouping based on: • Learning style • Ability level • Concept applications • Can track students’ level of understanding • Groups can switch teachers and re-learn info or stand alone
2. Speak and Help • One teacher takes the lead and presents info, activity, etc. • Second teacher keeps track of responses, ability to move into a new activity, get started on assignment, etc. • Very helpful for data collection on specific students • Gets immediate feedback of student knowledge
3. Speak and Chart • One teacher verbally presents the information • Second teacher writes info down as a model of note taking, charting, graphing, etc. • Allows students to “see” good note taking skills • Helps student to learn the important info in a text
4. Speak and Add • One teacher presents concepts • Second teacher adds in analogies, stories, etc. To reinforce key concepts • Teachers need to have a good report and the students need to be able to handle multiple speakers at a time. • Helps the students to get multiple perspectives • Important that teachers switch roles so one isn’t seen as the “expert” and the other the “helper”
