RR 14


RR14: DESCRIBE the co-teaching approaches you will use in you ITU (Task 5).
If you needed to give a name to the type of teaching we are using in the ITU, we would come closer to complimentary teaching.  The idea is that our three classes are separated by the bell schedule at LCC and we do not yet have the freedom of being present at the same time.  So to still implement a co-teaching environment we chose a central theme to base our lessons with.  The reason why it is complimentary is because our lessons are aligned to build off of each other.  For example, on a day that Biology is working on anatomical vocabulary of the legs and how muscles contract, physical education will be working on proper exercises and workouts for the legs.  At the end of the unit students will create a brochure that incorporates everything they have learned from all three classes into one solid explanation of health and fitness.
