These weblinks, above will be very helpful for future teachers! They are all about PLCs and Co-Teaching. There was a lot more information about Co-Teaching, but the weblink that I found for PLC is very informative. It talks about the 3 main ideas for PLC; Ensuring that students learn, A culture of collaboration, and Focusing on results. Which I think are about the same things we talked about as a class. The weblinks I included for Co-Teaching is helpful as well. One of the webinks talks about the pros and cons of Co-Teaching, which was eye opening. Another weblink includes games and a mini quiz for anyone to take. PLC and Co-Teaching are very important factors for not only a good classroom, but also for students. Students are our main focus as teachers, we need to make sure they are comfortable and that we are helping them as much as we can. I hope that these multiple weblinks will help with any questions or give you ideas for the future!
Madison,
ReplyDeleteI like how your post consists of both PLC's and co-teaching strategies. All of your weblinks are very helpful for future teachers and for teachers. I liked the three main ideas for PLC's are ensuring that students learn, a culture of collaboration, and focusing on results. I think these are the main ideas and we learned about these in class! I liked the weblinks on co-teaching as well and learn a lot from those and how having more than one teacher in the classroom is beneficial to the students!
