A Great Surprise!

I have had experiences with co-teachers that were not all that positive in the past. Co-teaching in my mind was not very successful in Carpentry. It seemed as an excuse to load up a class with students that needed extra help, but then not provide the help they needed. However, this year, to my surprise. My co-teacher has totally changed my outlook on this subject. She is incredible. She seeks ways to help all of the students (not just the one's she is assigned to). She takes an extra interest in the subject matter to make sure she is explaining the tasks appropriately. I can now see what a powerful model this is for all students not just SPED.
