Hi all!
One of the benefits of co-teaching that I have found is behavior management. Kellie and I take turns teaching and recording behavior observations. With so many concerns regarding staying on task in our room, we are better able to record data about these students because there is two of us. We also are able to talk with students about their behavior because of this with little disruption to the lesson. When our student with an IEP is blurting, it means that we can pull him aside and do a separate activity temporarily so as to not impede on other students ability to learn. Having two or more adults in the room at all times makes for a smaller ratio of kids to manage and it overall improves classroom climate.
