New this year! Thanks to the generosity of our school partners and co-teaching pairs last year, we were able to collect footage from most partner districts of co-teaching in a variety of classrooms last Spring– from 2nd graders at St. Anthony Park to a newcomers class at Wellstone.
Once editing is completed, we’ll be adding video of University of Minnesota teacher candidates and cooperating teachers in the Partner Network schools to our enhance the online modules.
Workshops held so far in 2013-14:
Co-Teaching strategies to maximize student achievement (related to SOEI elements 1Aiii, 1Cii, 3Bi, 4Bii) workshop for 10 teachers at Minneapolis Public Schools district headquarters, August 14, 2013.
