@mrshainesmath welcome Heather! #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath hi Heather! #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:13 PM EDT

Alright ya'll let's talk building community and collaboration. Q1 is on the way... #SwDMathChat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@KhatriMath thanks it's nice to have found the time to join you all again #swdmathchat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:15 PM EDT

Q1:What fundmntal chracteritsic is needed in coworking relationship b/w SpEd/GenEd tchrs?What are specific ways to foster that? #SWDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A1: Both teachers need to consider all Ss as "our students." #swdmathchat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@KhatriMath A1: respect of each other as educators and peers not 1 more important or powerful than the other #swdmathchat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:17 PM EDT

A1: Modeling being humble. Being open. #SWDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A1: Spend time learning together. Maybe lesson study format?? #SWDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath what are some ways we can maintain that balanced power structure? #SwDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A1: Time to co-plan and to get to know each other. Too many Ts don't have that opportunity. #swdmathchat

tcesarski Oct 13 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A1: Respect so that the Ss know that it is a shared classroom with shared authority #swdmathchat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 yes, I think learning together is super important to build that relationship #swdmathchat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:20 PM EDT

Having time to actually co-plan?! Blasphemy! #SwDMathChat https://t.co/mzxaM3Rbrs

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A1: Time to co-plan and to get to know each other. Too many Ts don't have that opportunity. #swdmathchat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath Kind of an "enough time in the day" issue #swdmathchat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A1: True parity demonstrated to all: students, families, colleagues, and admin #SwDMathChat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@KhatriMath coplanning lessons where both people share responsibility for all parts of a lesson not 1 always in helper role #swdmathchat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@DDibley123 It's so important yet so overlooked in logistics of scheduling (in lots of places) #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:21 PM EDT

Seriously. This is a big hurdle. #swdmathchat https://t.co/lOMjwgxFvM

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@bkdidact parity to ss part is critical. They easily sense when there is that imbalance. #SwDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@KhatriMath I lead a cohort of co-Ts. They are given up to 4 half days for planning Also expected to plan together weekly. #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath It's hard when my other half doesn't work to learn more about pedagogical content knowledge #swdmathchat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@DDibley123 that's awesome! #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@DDibley123 thankfully my dpt is really great abt coplanning. We have 2 days and then common preps. We're a well oiled machine! #SwDMathChat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@DDibley123 are those 4 -1/2 days throughout the year? #SWDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@KhatriMath Could be as simple as both names posted everywhere or as deep as both teachers teaching all students. #SwDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:25 PM EDT

Ts are getting creative with Google Drive/Docs to plan and share documents. #swdmathchat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@KhatriMath Common prep is important - not all buildings doing that in my district. #SwDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath Yes, partners can choose when they want to take them. Also get a half day to visit another co-teaching team. #SwDMathChat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@KhatriMath is that 2 days at the beginning of a course, in summer...?#SWDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@bkdidact @KhatriMath I was just going to mention both names being posted. #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@DDibley123 @KhatriMath you need to come lead our district! #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@DDibley123 @KhatriMath I honestly don't know how I would go about co-teaching without common preps! #SwDMathChat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@DDibley123 very nice. Is that see their class or visit during co-planning time? #SWDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:28 PM EDT

Sorry! Forgot the hashtag! #SwDMathChat https://t.co/nQ8fO2mwWw

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath like this 4%? https://t.co/p02OSf7lGE https://t.co/6ZfPP88zhq

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@bkdidact @mrshainesmath @educationweek This is the biggest problem right now! So my solution is to just do it myself #SwDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 @KhatriMath I'm just the facilitator. Someone else came up with the $$ #SwDMathChat Glad they see the value.

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@bkdidact it helps that our SpEd tchrs are dept. instead of teaching across contents #swdmathchat @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@DDibley123 @KhatriMath some things are so simple, but valuable! #SwDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath It's separate from the 4-half days for planning. #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@bkdidact @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath and principal also takes into account comfrt level whenever he can. #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@KhatriMath @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath they are only math teachers? That's rare! #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@KhatriMath @bkdidact @mrshainesmath I bet! #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@bkdidact @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath most of our sped tchrs teach one content. A few don't (usually if they teach 12:1:1 class) #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath that's weekly #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@KhatriMath @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath oh man! I'd love to chat with the math ones! Are they on the twitter? #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@bkdidact @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath I WISH!!!! Sadly no. #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@KhatriMath @bkdidact @mrshainesmath Are you secondary? #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 @bkdidact @mrshainesmath yes, middle school #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:39 PM EDT

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:39 PM EDT

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:40 PM EDT

Related Q2 on it's way... #SwDMathChat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 @KhatriMath @bkdidact how many students/grades is that for? #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@KhatriMath @bkdidact @mrshainesmath You heard me right #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:41 PM EDT

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 @bkdidact @mrshainesmath yikes! #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath @KhatriMath @bkdidact Sorry two per site. One for pre-k through 2nd. One for 3-5. Each grade has five classrooms #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath @bkdidact yeh its so hard to meaningfully plan when its across subjects #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A2: I'll listen on this one because my whole school is special education. So the answer is A LOT! #SwDMathChat https://t.co/jurBIsVrtG

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@lauren_glaaa Visual models and manips. to show how operations are related. Building and dividing an array, rotating an array #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:45 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath @bkdidact and even more so when math is involved -.- #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:45 PM EDT

@bkdidact hahahahaha #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:46 PM EDT

A2: I think our district has good intentions, but they can't afford to pay us for what really needs to be done to do it well #SWDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:46 PM EDT

a2: We give out IEPs, do RTI left and write, have common preps so a lot...but sometimes SPed still gets short end of the stick. #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@KhatriMath @mrshainesmath @bkdidact I'd rather do it alone. #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:48 PM EDT

I hope @KhatriMath doesn't mind if I share a related @TCM_at_NCTM article! https://t.co/Aqezn0DeLO Wondering people's thoughts #SwDMathChat

jamiedunc3 Oct 13 @ 9:48 PM EDT

Thanks for a great chat. Got to run! #swdmathchat #elemmathchat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:48 PM EDT

A2 SpEd Ts are valued but I think too many gen ed Ts want to abdicate responsibility for SpEd Ss. #swdmathchat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@bkdidact of course not. #SwDMathChat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@bkdidact so what does a lot look like? Do you have 2 teachers in each class or are you all dual certified? #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 @KhatriMath @mrshainesmath but when co-teaching is good, it's so good, especially for the students! #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@jamiedunc3 Thanks for joining us! #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@bkdidact @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath I had a 3 year relationship w/ mine. We were school renowned co-teaching pair #SwDMathChat

mrshainesmath Oct 13 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@bkdidact @KhatriMath @TCM_at_NCTM I can't open it with the link. What was the article title? I can look it up #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath We only have students with IEPs. All classes are 12:1:1 and have a head T and a certified asst. T (not a para) #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@bkdidact @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath I've learned so much from her and basically teach all my ss with those strategies #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@KhatriMath @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath I've never gone more than 2 years! Waiting for that magical longitudinal relationship! #SwDMathChat

bkdidact - Moderator Oct 13 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@mrshainesmath @KhatriMath @TCM_at_NCTM models for students with special needs #SwDMathChat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@bkdidact This is my first year teaching without her. It's weird. But we teach same grade so still co-plan #SwDMathChat

Quick Q3 to close us off: What have been some positive experiences working alongside GenEd OR SpEd teachers? #SwDMathChat

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:55 PM EDT

oops wrong # #SwDMathChat https://t.co/SGqOvICThu

DDibley123 Oct 13 @ 9:54 PM EDT

@KhatriMath @bkdidact @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath I wish more admin would work to keep Ts together. #elemmathchat

KhatriMath Oct 13 @ 9:56 PM EDT

@DDibley123 @bkdidact @jamiedunc3 @mrshainesmath I'm glad that's a priority at my school #SwDMathChat
