“Co‑Teaching Flight Plan – The Sky is the Limit” – Susan Hentz

Fasten your seat belt and prepare for a lively, energizing keynote session with veteran co‑teacher, Susan Hentz. You’ll be able to reflect on all the “solo flights” you’ve taken – often working with students in isolation – as Susan helps you explore the power of working together in co‑taught classrooms to get to the final destination. Based on her extensive experience as a co‑teacher and working with co‑teachers across the nation, Susan will share the tremendous advantages of “co‑piloting” to meet your students’ individual “flight plans” and ensure their success in a supportive environment with high expectations. Sharing personal anecdotes, humor and the lessons she has learned in co‑teaching, Susan will have you asking if the sky really is the limit when it comes to student achievement and the power of co‑teaching.

� C‑1: EMPOWER! “growing” Students Who are in Charge of Their Own Learning in Your Co‑Taught Classrooms – Kathleen Kryza

The goal of co‑teaching is empowering, not enabling students. The Common Core State Standards also require students to use higher‑order thinking skills and be accountable for explaining their thought processes. So how do we make that happen in our co‑taught classroom? First, we must develop students who have growth mindsets and are self‑reflective learners. Then we need to explicitly teach them the vital metacognitve skills that life long learners possess – the ability to talk, read, write listen, collaborate, and question. In this session you will learn dynamic, doable strategies for developing students’ mindsets and skill sets with rigorous strategies for getting all students thinking deeply. In your

co‑taught classroom, teaching students how to learn is as important as teaching them what to learn. When we model, scaffold and apprentice our students into owning the essential skills that empower them, they become successful learners.
