Co-Teaching: Keeping it Real in 2020 Public Schools

In our ever-evolving schools, it is becoming more clear than ever that co-teaching is the way to reach English learners in the classroom.  What does effective co-teaching look like?  What are the barriers for English language teachers?  Many of the models you have learned in class are excellent prototypes, but once you land that first job you will find that co-teaching in practice might look a little different.  What are some ways to think outside the box so you can still reach the students?  What are best practices for all students?   These are some of the topics and questions we will address during the webinar “Co-teaching: Keeping it Real in 2020 Public Schools”.  While all will benefit from this information, there will be a focus on secondary, particularly middle school.
