What+is+this+all+about?

My principal, Tim Moore, has recently discovered that Bloomington High School is the only school in our conference that does not offer co-taught classes. Therefore, he has asked me to spearhead a Geometry Co-Taught class. My task is to analyze the factors going into coteaching, report back on student progress, and ultimately state if a course like this could benefit our students. Therefore, as fellow faculty of BHS, I would like your input on what a co-taught math class should be!

This course will be a co-taught Geometry course built for students who typically struggle in a "regular" math class. The two teachers are there for extra support and students will hopefully have a better relationship with both teachers. Seeing that this course is "under construction" we would like to hear your thoughts while we are still in the development stages. Please visit the Discussion Board link to respond to the numerous questions we are curious for your response. In the end of this research, we hope to build a course that has stake from both the teacher and student perspectives. Hopefully, through collaboration, we can make a class that guarantees student success!
